I think I've read that one too, and the chapter in the Solaris
Internals book... all 3 are interesting :-D

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"

And the Gelato ICE presentation:
