I had a question about memory requirements.


The following section of the docs says:

Ensure that each memory channel has at least one memory DIMM inserted, and
that the memory size for each is at least 4GB. *Note*: this has one of the
most direct effects on performance.

https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/linux_gsg/nic_perf_intel_platform.html


We are considering a project that has 2 dimm slots and will be using 16gb
in one slot and leaving the other empty.


Is it the empty slot that causes the performance hit?


Thanks.
