Hi David,
The patch is intended to detect AMD platforms and enable all CPU cores by
default on native builds.
As an optimization for memory footprint, users can override this by specifying
"-Dmax_lcores" option based on DPDK lcores required for their usecases.
Sure, will request to add this topic for discussion at techboard.
