> ISSUE: very slow (factor 100) 4-way 16GByte server, with 2.4.2
Last time we saw this issue on the list it turned out that the
machine had wrong MTRR settings and setup a significant part of
its memory non-cachable.
For a 16-way machine, 100 times speed difference is exactly what
I would expect when all memory is setup as uncachable.

Rik
