Given NODE_TOPO does NPS4 that should be roughtly similar to limit=2 it should do 'better' but it doesn't, it's markedly worse... weird. In fact, none of the NPS4 numbers make any sense, if you've already split the whole thing into 4, you remain with 2 CCXs per node and NODE should be NODE_LIMIT should be NODE_TOPO. All the NODE variants should end up scanning both CCXs and performance should really be the same.

Perhaps see if you can figure out why NPS4 is so weird, there's only 2 CCXs to go around per node on that thing, the various results should not be all over the map. Perhaps pick hackbenc since it shows the problem and is easy and quick to run? Also, can you share the TOPOEXT code?
