How many processors do you have, are interrupts from each NIC going to seperate processors/cores/whatever (show us the output of /proc/interrupts), and have you bound each tcpdump to its corresponding NICs interrupt CPU?

That seems to be a great thing to investigate. I did find a lot of material about process and interrupt affinity. I will give it a try and see if that does help fix my problem.
Any other idea worth looking at?
