Hello Denys, 
   I've installed sysstat (good tools!) and the result is very similar
to the one which appears at top, take a look:
   13:34:23     CPU   %user   %nice    %sys %iowait    %irq   %soft  %steal   %idle    intr/s
13:34:24     all    0.00    0.00    2.72    0.00    0.25   12.13    0.99   83.91  16267.33

13:34:24       3    0.00    0.00    0.00    0.00    0.99   21.78    0.00   77.23   4032.67

13:34:24       5    0.00    0.00    0.00    0.00    0.00    0.00    0.00  100.00     30.69
13:34:24       6    0.00    0.00    0.00    0.00    0.00    0.00    0.00  100.00     33.66
13:34:24       7    0.00    0.00    0.00    0.00    0.00    0.00    0.00  100.00     32.67

So, we can assure that the IRQs are not being balanced, and that there
isn't any processor overload.

Thanks!
