Interrupt Moderation
The Interrupt Moderation feature allows you to limit the rate of interrupts to
the CPU during packet transmission and packet reception. When this
feature is enabled, interrupts are handled as a group so that the CPU
utilization decreases; however, the latency may increase.
To enable or disable the Interrupt Moderation feature, do the following:
1. Access the Advanced Properties.
See “Accessing Advanced Properties” on page 76.
2. Select Interrupt Moderation in the Property box.
The Interrupt Moderation page is displayed as shown in Figure 44.
