Non-uniform memory access (NUMA) Memory access between processor core to main memory is not uniform. Memory resides in separate regions called “NUMA domains.” For highest performance, …

application memory performance. Fortunately, there are steps that can be taken to mitigate any NUMA-based performance issues or to even use NUMA architecture to the advant.

Visualize host NUMA topology and current resource usage. Define Virtual NUMA nodes for a guest. What can't it do (yet)? Eg. Intel QPI links. Memory is not movable ... When should IRQ affinity …

Many recent multicore systems are NUMA, Figure 1 shows an example NUMA system with 2 processors and 8 cores. In NUMA systems each processor has an on-chip memory con-troller (MC), thus a part …

Numad Daemon which monitors NUMA topology and resource utilization, automatically making process affinity adjustments to optimize locality based on dynamically changing system conditions

A comparison of static and dynamic load balancing of a vortex dynamics computation on 32 processors of the Intel iPSC-1.
