In more powerful machines that can handle 1Gbit/s with 50% CPU
utilization, It's VM's scheduler_wait consuming about 30% of CPU usage.
(xeon-e3 attachment) suggesting system can get more input.  In
overloaded and less powerful machines, VM task management functions get
more resources and time spent in kernel is less than 20%. (corei3
