NUMA awareness

2013-06-10 Thread Meny Yossefi
Hi, I'm using FreeBSD 9.1. I'd like to know what's the status with the NUMA support. I understand there should be initial though not full support by now. Is that correct ? Is there a new NUMA api for memory allocation ? Thanks, Meny Yossefi | SW Engineer | FreeBSD team Mellan

irq balancer
