Exactly Victor,
It's not a big deal because the spikes are just for a minute 4 to 6 times a day; but the problem is when (potentially) all the "bad things" align all at once (bots, DB, system loads), and the one minute problem becomes a two or three minute problem (it's possible, of course).
I'm going to refine my instrumentation and see if I can figure it out. If so, great. Normally, I can solve most any system-level computer problem and with (more than) a bit of uncertainty in the new COVID-19 biohazard around these parts, I'm not so keen in going out with so many tourists here now (none of the foreign tourists are wearing masks, as I can see today, and there are a LOT of tourists now) ; so this little spike problem is keeping me busy inside, avoiding a potential virus from Chinese wildlife markets.

Hi ,
I am using 48 CPU sunOS server at my work.
The application has facility to check the current load average before starting a new process to control the load.
Right now it is configured as 48. So it does mean that each CPU can take maximum one proces and no processe is waiting.

smc91c92_cs
SMC91C92_CS(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual SMC91C92_CS(4)
NAME
smc91c92_cs - SMC 91cxx device driver
SYNOPSIS
insmod smc91c92_cs.o [pc_debug=n] [if_port=n] [irq_list=i,j,...]
DESCRIPTION
Smc91c92_cs is the low-level Card Services driver for SMC 91c92, 91c94, 91c96, and 91c100 based PC Card ethernet adapters. When this
driver is attached to a card, it allocates the next available ethernet device (eth0..eth#). This device name will be reported in the ker-
nel log file, and passed on to cardmgr(8).
With the default transceiver setting, the driver will attempt to continuously autodetect the transceiver type (10base2 or 10baseT). There
should normally only be a one or two second lag before the correct transceiver is selected. On particularly noisy or busy networks, it is
possible for the detection logic to incorrectly toggle the transceiver type. If this becomes a problem, it may be necessary to explicitly
select the interface type when the module is loaded or with the ifport command.
PARAMETERS
pc_debug=n
Selects the PCMCIA debugging level. This parameter is only available if the module is compiled with debugging enabled. A non-zero
value enables debugging.
if_port=n
Selects the transceiver type. 0 is autodetect (10baseT or 10base2), 1 is 10baseT (twisted pair), and 2 is 10base2 (BNC, or thin
net). The default is 0 (autodetect).
irq_list=i,j,...
Specifies the set of interrupts that may be allocated by this driver.
DIAGNOSTICS
eth#: interrupt(s) dropped!
Indicates that the driver did not receive an interrupt notification for some reason. The driver will poll the card (with a signifi-
cant performance penalty) if the problem persists. The most likely cause is an interrupt conflict and/or host bridge configuration
problem.
