If you are using hugepages then automatic numa is not migrating those pages. If you are pinning the JVMs to the socket then automatic numa balancing is unnecessary as they are already on the correct node. > In previous sched numa version, I had found 20% dropping with Jrockit > with our configuration. but for this version.

In your case, you will see little or not benefit with any automatic NUMA balancing implementation as the most important pages neiter can migrate nor need to. -- Mel Gorman SUSE Labs -- 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/
