I am unclear about the benefits of the patchset, I have not tested
it or reviewed the latest revision. My big concern was that top-tier
might not always be suitable.

I see that there are some numbers posted, but I find this weird
"After the graph creation, the processes are stopped and data is migrated
to CXL node 2 before continuing so that BFS phase starts accessing lower
tier memory." Why not allocate everything on CXL node 2?
