| Numa policy hit/miss statistics | |
| /sys/devices/system/node/node*/numastat | |
| All units are pages. Hugepages have separate counters. | |
| numa_hit A process wanted to allocate memory from this node, | |
| and succeeded. | |
| numa_miss A process wanted to allocate memory from another node, | |
| but ended up with memory from this node. | |
| numa_foreign A process wanted to allocate on this node, | |
| but ended up with memory from another one. | |
| local_node A process ran on this node and got memory from it. | |
| other_node A process ran on this node and got memory from another node. | |
| interleave_hit Interleaving wanted to allocate from this node | |
| and succeeded. | |
| For easier reading you can use the numastat utility from the numactl package | |
| (http://oss.sgi.com/projects/libnuma/). Note that it only works | |
| well right now on machines with a small number of CPUs. | |
