"systat vm" shows "normal" looking interrupts to me - lots of softnet
interrupts and not much else interesting.  Here's a snapshot:

   79711 Interrupts
     100 lapic_clockintr
     100 cpu0 softclock
   10719 cpu0 softnet
         cpu0 softserial
     100 cpu0 timer
         FPU flush IPI
         FPU synch IPI
       1 TLB shootdown I
   25243 cpu1 softnet
     100 cpu1 timer
       1 timeset IPI
         FPU flush IPI
         FPU synch IPI
       1 TLB shootdown I
   22686 cpu2 softnet
     100 cpu2 timer
       1 timeset IPI
         FPU flush IPI
         FPU synch IPI
