Hi,
We have a custom PCI card and an associated driver whos main purpose is to get data from
a digitisation system. The problem we are seeing is that occasionally (like once every 2
weeks or so) the kernel apparently pauses in its handling of interrupts for almost 2
seconds. This isn't matched which anything like /etc/daily or any other disk activity
like core dumps etc.. 
Argh!

The system is a 2.2.7 + CAM patches on a PII-350 with 64mb of RAM.
