Hi Casey,

I was just curious how you used the output from per NUMA allocation profiling
to fix the issues above? (So that we can do that as well :)). We get a lot of
NUMA high level meminfo from /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/vmstat.
Are there specific allocations that are more of an issue?
Do you monitor these in userspace and use maybe something like numactl/migratepages
to migrate resources to another node?

Thanks!
Usama
