# vmstat -i

# systat
                    /0   /1   /2   /3   /4   /5   /6   /7   /8   /9   /10
     Load Average

                    /0   /10  /20  /30  /40  /50  /60  /70  /80  /90  /100
root     irq10: uhc XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
root           idle XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
             <idle> XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

So would irq10 be the culprit? If so where do I go from here?
