Description:
Gregory Price recently posted a patch set that adds support for weighted memory interleaving allowing a
process's memory to be distributed between non-uniform memory access (NUMA) nodes in a more controlled way.
According to his performance measurements, the patch set could provide a significant improvement for computers with network-attached memory.
The patch set also
introduces new system calls and paves the way for future extensions
intended to give processes more control over their own memory.
