This tracking is important to performance because SQL Server makes reasonable attempts to use node, local memory whenever possible. Access to memory on a remote node (remote memory/foreign memory) takes longer which can lead to, small, unwanted delays in query proce...
In a Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA) design, memory modules are attached to each processor, and, although memory is shared across all modules, access times vary depending on how close a processor is to a particular memory module. NUMA aims to overcome the central problems of UMA ...
First, the away buffer counts are not part of the performance counters, only foreign memory counters. To view the away buffer counts you need to capture dbcc memorystatus details. You could also look at sys.dm_os_memory_nodes or other locations to calculate the differenc...

The memory continues to be balanced across all memory nodes as appropriate. Only at this point are any pages, that can’t be directly returned to their local nodes, considered Foreign.The foreign is memory known to belong to another node and being activity used outside its ...
How It Works: SQL Server (NUMA Local, Foreign and Away Memory Blocks) 發行項 2012/12/13 Applies to: SQL 2005, 2008, 2008 R2, and SQL 2012 versions. The NODE an operating system page, physically belongs to can be acquired using the QueryVirtualMemoryEx Windows API...
NUMA architecture can affect the performance of an application that runs acceptably on UMA architecture. The difference in the latency to access local memory vs remote memory can cause degradation. Testers need to be aware of the differences to understand the performance characteristics of the ...
In this paper we discuss how LeanXcale database can be deployed in NUMA architectures such as the one of the Bull Sequana and what aspects have been taking into account to maximize efficiency and to introduce the necessary flexibility in the deployment infrastructure.Ricardo Jimenez-Peris...
With an emergence of distributed hardware trends like Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA), where access times to a system's physical address space depend on relative location of Memory w.r.t CPU, it is crucial to rethink about placement of a user process' workable memory with respect to ...
