I have suspected new em driver, because there was no lags if wifi iwi0 was used instead of em0 for network. So I had downgraded the em driver separately to 6.2.9 version, have build a kernel loadable module, and have loaded it instead of the 6.6.6 module, and the lags have disappeared. The lags appeares only if browser (Firefox, Opera) does several requests: main page, js, images. There are no lags if browser reload simple page. Also, I could not reproduce lags by other network traffic: pings, ssh, scp, downloading files. There are no lags if I compile and so on. Some additional info: The shared irq11 is used by pcm0, em0, iwi0, CardBus, USB, and acpi_video0. em0@pci2:1:0: class=0x020000 card=0x05491014 chip=0x101e8086 rev=0x03 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' device = '82540EP Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Mobile)' -- Igor Sysoev http://sysoev.ru/en/
