https://github.com/konkor/cpufreq/issues/48
konkor, author of the “cpufreq” program has stated:
1. irqbalance doesn’t support fully all kernel features to an example a turning on/off core threads supported by the extension. If you have installed irqbalance package and turn off some cores you can get freezes or not working devices like wi-fi, bluetooth, video cards, sound cards…
2. irqbalance is not a part of the Linux kernel.
3. It designed for special server configurations with many RAID/HDD/SDD controllers.
4. Only Debian Flowers have the irqbalance installed because Debian is very Server oriented. Red Hat doesn’t have installed irqbalance by default but it doesn’t make Red Hat less server OS.
5. It keeps all Linux core threads working so its not good for power saving, especially for laptops.
6. Any user-space application (like games, compilation…) can not get 100% of CPU resources on any thread because it’s always sharing this resources with IO tasks.

OK. Seems to be the best option.
BTW irqbalance is only shipped on full versions.To remove
sudo apt purge irqbalancePhilosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.
antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.
