Thanks, I'll consider that.

FWIW, our current stage cluster node is *not* doing this at all. In fact, here's a numastat from stage:

                           node0           node1
numa_hit              1623243097      1558610594
numa_miss              257459057       310098727
numa_foreign           310098727       257459057
interleave_hit          25822175        26010606
local_node            1616379287      1545600377
other_node             264322867       323108944

Then from prod:

                           node0           node1
numa_hit              4987625178      3695967931
numa_miss             1678204346       418284176
numa_foreign           418284176      1678204370
interleave_hit             27578           27720
local_node            4988131216      3696305260
other_node            1677698308       417946847


Note how ridiculously uneven node0 and node1 are in comparison to what we're seeing in stage. I'm willing to bet something is just plain wrong with our current production node. So I'm working with our NOC team to schedule a failover to the alternate node. If that resolves it, I'll see if I can't get some kind of answer from our infrastructure guys to share in case someone else encounters this.

Yes, even if that answer is "reboot." :)

Thanks again!
