If it's interleaving, every other cacheline will be "local".
ISTR AMD64 was page-interleaved but then got confused by documents
describing "128-bit" 2-way interleave. I now realize the 128bit
is refering to interleave between two "banks" of memory behind
each memory controller. ie 2 * 128-bit provides in the 32-byte
cacheline size that most x86 programs expect.
The cache line size on K7 and K8 is 64 bytes.
Anyway, I'm hoping that we'll see a consistent result if node interleave
is turned off.
Yes usually a good idea.
