I asked here a week or so ago, and referenced an older bug, but haven't seen any comments. Googling, I see others asking about the same. Datum: *every* one I've found is like this: they're all HP DL580's or DL380's, or such.
This is being used for heavy-duty scientific computing. Does anyone know if it *will* it seriously affect throughput speed if I turn off irqbalance?
It's running 6.4, btw.

You referred to http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=6319 in your earlier post. If you believe you are hit by the bug reported there, I strongly urge you to test the centosplus kernel that has a patch (see note 17700 of the bug report).
Regarding the current status, upstream BZ ( https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=887006 ) is open to the public. It is "on QA" at the moment. I suspect the fix will be in EL6.5 and possibly in a 6.4 kernel update.
