NUMA systems don't have any benefits (well other than engineering considerations like practicality of construction).

There are patches to do more NUMA aware scheduling which help a bit as well as to do things like replicate the kernel code to each node. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
