So, here are the results from the same test on a dual-socket 2-way
NUMA opteron 8 core machine.

Running on one CPU.

  copy size	atomic		percpu		diff in pct
  0		535964443	616756827	+15.07%
  32		399988186	378678713	 -5.33%
  64		389067476	355073979	 -8.74%
  128		342192631	315615300	 -7.77%
  256		281208005	260598931	 -7.33%
  512		188070912	193225269	 +2.74%

Running on all eight cores.

  copy size	atomic		percpu		diff in pct
  0		121324328	4889425511	+3,930.05%
  32		 96170193	2999613380	+3,019.07%
  64		 98139061	2813894184	+2,767.25%
  128		112610025	2503229487	+2,122.92%
  256		 96828114	2069865752	+2,037.67%
  512		 95858297	1537726109	+1,504.17%

Ration of all cores / single core.

  copy size	atomic		percpu
  0		0.23		7.93
  32		0.24		7.92
  64		0.25		7.92
  128		0.33		7.93
  256		0.34		7.94
  512		0.51		7.96

Note exactly 8 - the cores do share quite a bit of resources after all
- but pretty close.

Thanks.
