But now, with 20+ core CPUs, does it still really make sense to have
dual socket systems everywhere, with NUMA effects all over the place
that typical users are blissfully unaware of?
I claim single-socket systems already have NUMA effects, since multiple
layers (differently-shared) of cache have the same effect as memory at
different hop-distances.
