What array size are you using? Note that if you use a small array it may 
be an overkill since
a lot more interrupts are invoked (-> more latency). I found that for a 
high workload a budget
of 256/512/1024 keeps fairness and doesn't increase latency.

Regardless, doing array-polling is a nice optimization reducing CQ 
entrances.
