Andrea:
I continue testing specjbb2005 for your patch on 2c7535e100805d9,
removed hard pin for openjdk JVM.
On my NHM EP machine 12GB memory 16 LCPUs. Following data use each
scenario's results on 3.5-rc2 as 100% base.

			3.5-rc2 	3.5-rc2+autonuma
2 JVM, each 1GBmem 	 100%		100%
1 JVM with 2GBmem	 100%		100%

2 JVM, each 4GBmem	 100%		98%~100%
1 JVM with 4GB mem	 100%		98%~100%

So, my testing didn't find the benefit from autonuma patch, and when use
bigger memory size, the path introduce more variation and may cause 2%
performance drop. my open jdk option is "-Xmx4g -Xms4g -Xincgc"

I am wondering if the specjbb can show your patch's advantage.
