Interesting - I would guess that is due to how Intel mimics UMA on
what is basically a NUMA platform. If your application is multi
threaded and those threads share one large memory space and the
application does not keep NUMA in mind intel will have you paging in
and out of the cores allocation - if enough ram is use perhaps even
forcing to swap to achieve this.  BUT on the other hand it does offer
the flexibility that true NUMA does not.  I would love to see a head
to head when 1 app uses ~95% of the ram and has more then 2xCore
threads.
