Hi,
after doing a Nehalem General Exploration of my code, the results show several "LLC Load Misses Serviced By Remote DRAM" events. I have measured this on a Xeon X5650 platform with only 1 CPU (6 cores, 12 incl. hyper threading), so my question is: how can there be a "remote" DRAM if there is only 1 CPU? As far as I know, "remote DRAM" means a piece of memory which is attached to another CPU and thus requires a QPI transfer.
Regards,
Hagen
