>we need more NUMA As someone who regularly deals with NUMA in high speed networking, I wish the opposite. It's shocking how much crossing a NUMA node just guts performance. 10Gbps becomes 5Gbps. 100Gbps becomes 20Gbps. Your application is too big for a single NUMA node? Sorry, your $80k investment only bought quarter of a fast computer, not a whole fast computer. The other three quarters are useless. CPUs with wide fast interconnects between nodes and no locality to PCIe bus would make this situation much better. If AMD can do it then they'll walk all over Intel in some markets.
