And I am thus reminded that I really need to throw more RAM into my
new-to-me X2200M2.  8GB isn't really enough RAM for 8 Opteron cores.  It
limits available parallelism on memory-intensive tasks like compiles,
which is a bit of a problem since I'm tasking this machine as an
application/compute server.
