ksoftirqd remains pegged near 100%, making the system less than responsive.
a flood of incoming network connections could explain this, or some VM/host
feedback issue, or...?
hmmm, dmesg is full of:
TCPv6: Possible SYN flooding on port 80. Dropping request
One might think that the iptables blacklist is probably growing too
large. We might drop all entries and start from scratch by just
blocking those who still didn't notice.
Done,

the terminal session was getting really slow there for a little while,
but now all of a sudden everything has gone back to normal, memory use
is back down & no more swapping, ksoftirqd and events no longer pegging
the cpu, load has returned to near 0.1 ..
