“Issues” that NUMA makes visible●●●RHEL6 system scheduler appears biased towardsresponsiveness and optimizing for CPU utilization● It will often align network app on same core as interruptTries to use idle CPUs, regardless of where processmemory is located!Non-local memory accesses have higher accesslatency, which degrades performance
