For example, after getting ~3MB of package information form
ftp.debian.org
I find this in /var/log/syslog:

Apr 11 09:56:26 unknown kernel: eth0: Too much work at interrupt,
IntrStatus=0x0001.
Apr 11 09:57:24 unknown kernel: eth0: Too much work at interrupt,

Apr 11 09:59:35 unknown last message repeated 5 times
Apr 11 09:59:58 unknown kernel: eth0: Too much work at interrupt,

This is 2.4.4pre1.
