Thanks for all your replies.
I just wanted to avoid a setup, where one core would get the full load
(the others idling) while trying to handle all network throuput.
So from what I understand, it is not necessary to worry about using
multiple cores with LVS. That's because IPVS as a kernel task is run on
all cores (if the kernel is compiled for SMP).
Means: In high traffic times I'll expect to see the same Sys-load evenly
splitted to all cores.
So, there is no easy way (and it doesn't make any sense) to tell the
kernel to handle each NICs traffic with a particular core.
I guess the next bottleneck would be the throuphput of a NIC, but that's
a different story.
