Title:
  IRQ handling issues on sandy bridge board

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I7-2600 on sandy bridge board goes in to slow mode due to interrupt
  (handling?) problems. (Ubuntu 2.6.38-11.48-generic 2.6.38.8)

  (FYI: there are a few instances on this kernel problem published on
  the web. Depending on what hardware is affected symptoms do change)

  Two to three times a day this occurs:

  The system is then slow until i disable and re-enable networkingIE.
  Probably due to Ethernet being on IRQ16.

  By slow i mean extremely slow graphics, slow keyboard response, jerky
  mouse movement.

  I agree that primarily one would expect vmware to be (part of) the cause, but there are many others indicating similar issues without vmware
