The high number of interrupts by itself is not a trouble AFAIK. I had a
486 with 5 serial ports with independent dialin modems up for 230 days
and for 2 serial ports the number of interrupts was close to wrapping
IIRC. I had more serial interrupts than timer interrupts - that seemed
strange to me but usually at least 1 modem was active (plus the
permanent slip link on 5th serial port). This was 2.0.33pre-smth or 2.0.33.
Pity I had to reboot this machine - I would have liked to see how much
uptime it would get.
