hi,
I dont claim to understand this benchmark, but I'm now getting this:

$ ./perf bench numa all
# Running numa/mem benchmark...

SNIP

###
# 1 task will execute (on 1 nodes, 4 CPUs):
# -1x 1MB global shared mem operations
# -1x 0MB process shared mem operations
# -1x 0MB thread local mem operations
###
...


'-1x' does not seem right/intentional for default case

thanks,
jirka
