Paride Legovini (paride) wrote (last edit ): Re: Consider removing irqbalance from default install on desktop images

Hi, adding a couple of extra pointers here (I'm the Debian irqbalance maintainer). This the Debian bug where the discussion on removing irqbalance from the kernel Recommends happened:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=926967

In Debian irqbalance is not installed anymore by default since mid-2019 (clearly reflected by popcon: https://qa.debian.org/popcon-graph.php?packages=irqbalance), and no bug was reported related to it being missing.

Back in the day I asked upstream their take on irqbalance usefulness with newer kernels, here is their reply:
