Document Interaction Between --numa and -n
The documentation for --numa
claims that it makes the runtime "allocate the nursery from node-local memory". The -n
flag
divides the allocation area ... into chunks of the specified size. During execution, when a processor exhausts its current chunk, it is given another chunk from the pool until the pool is exhausted, at which point a collection is triggered.
My intuition says that these two flags are incompatible. I've not tested what actually happens if you try to use them together. Regardless, I think it's worth mentioning in the manual.
