We're working on NUMA-specific testing right now (though I'm not > sure who, specifically, is working on the test case side of that). I don't really have time to write up individual testcases right now, but I think a good start would be to test the following features: http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-specs/specs/juno/implemented/virt-driver-numa-placement.html http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-specs/specs/juno/implemented/virt-driver-vcpu-topology.html http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-specs/specs/kilo/implemented/virt-driver-large-pages.html http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-specs/specs/kilo/approved/input-output-based-numa-scheduling.html http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/nova-specs/specs/kilo/implemented/virt-driver-cpu-pinning.html Chris
