Did you have opportunity to play with the soft interrupt
coalescing we discussed?

I was able to remove a third of the interrupt overhead
from the Tigon III driver, using the approach we discussed
at the user group meeting two months back.

It looks to be a serious win... and it appears to be
applicable to almost every driver you've written (it's
about a 12 line change per driver).
