Don't know about what QuickPath will have (hmm... "QuickPath" seems to be new to me, as I was so used to the old "CSI" name). However, as it will support Nehalem as well as Tukwila, it may be interesting to see what is currently available for Itanium-2: ... we use the PMU to capture two different types of memory access data -- long latency loads and data translation lookaside buffer (DTLB) misses -- section 3: Profile Generation "Hardware Profile-guided Automatic Page Placement for ccNUMA Systems" http://moss.csc.ncsu.edu/~mueller/ftp/pub/mueller/papers/ppopp06.pdf And the Gelato ICE presentation: http://www.ice.gelato.org/apr07/pres_pdf/gelato_ICE07apr_pageplacement_mueller_ncsu.pdf Rayson > > > Jonathan > _______________________________________________ perf-discuss mailing list perf-discuss@opensolaris.org
