Automate task assignment to Numa nodes on Linux and Windows.
Automate task assignment to Numa nodes on Linux and Windows.
You want to allocate tasks such as games to a single Numa node with one CPU, while distributing the rest across another. This should help reduce lag in games and balance workload. You’re looking for solutions that work on both Ubuntu and Windows 8.1. The idea is to pin specific applications to one node connected via GPU and manage CPU distribution effectively.
On Windows you can utilize Task Manager to assign a single-core processor or employ CPUCORES, which might work better for some games. On Linux, numactl is familiar but scheduling feels much smoother.
