====== irqbalance Daemon ======

The daemon distributes the incoming IRQs across all CPUs in ordner to
increase performance. To ensure that the daemon doesn't influence the
IRQ affinity, it simply can be stopped.

This daemon is started from the irqbalance init
script. To disable once do:

<code bash>
 $ /etc/init.d/irqbalance stop
</code>

To disable the deamon permantent do:

<code bash>
 $ chkconfig irqbalance off
</code>

The irqbalance daemon has a parameter, that already set IRQ affinities for example by kernel comandline or procfs are ignored.
