1. A method to select a processor for a thread, comprising: for each of a plurality of processors: retrieving a list of interrupt instances for a plurality of interrupt types; calculating an interrupt instance count value for each of the plurality of interrupt types; multiplying a corresponding weighting factor by the interrupt instance count value for each one of the plurality of interrupt types to generate a plurality of weighted interrupt values; calculating an overall weighted vector value based on the sum of the plurality of weighted interrupt values; and designating one of the plurality of processors as a selected processor based on the lowest overall weighted vector value.
