maybe my first message wasn't that clear.  any ethernet activity
can cause this if the input queue can't be drained fast enough.
clearly, too much of the cpu is spent in interrupt context receiving
packets, and not enough processing them. but delete the print, and
tcp congestion avoidance should make up the difference fast enough
to keep the remote happy.
