Kernel migration eat CPUs

[Alexey Vlasov]

Hi,

Beginning from 3.7 including 3.10 kernel, I noticed that from time to
time all CPUs turn out to be busy 100% and at the moment websites of my
clients work slowly or donât work at all.

All CPUs are busy with kernel threads migration for about 3-5 minutes.
Exactly how often it periodically happens I donât know, but it happens
once in 1-3 hours.

Approximately 30 my servers work on kernel 2.6.35 and thereâs no such
problem there. We use kernels 3.7 â 3.9 on 5 servers and I see such
effect everywhere. If you downgrade on 2.6.35, then migration doesnât
eat CPUs.

These servers are used for usual LAMP shared hosting.

Can I get migration as if on the kernel 2.6.35 or can this feature be
disabled?
