Hello.

I would really suggest running i386 on this box. If SC1425 is just a
tower version of SC1420 (and quickly scanning the dmesg seems to
indicate that), you will get much lower interrupt load with the integrated
NICs. Your pps rate may even double compared to amd64. 

When I was toying with amd64 on SC1420 it had some other quirks, so
switching to i386 may help you with your original problem.
