Fine it's up to you :).

Also note 16 bytes of those 24 bytes, you need to spend them too if
you remotely hope to perform as good as AutoNUMA (I can already tell
you...), they've absolutely nothing to do with the background scanning
that AutoNUMA does to avoid modifying the apps.

The blame on autonuma you can give is 8 bytes per page only, so 0.07%,
which I can probably reduce 0.03% if I screw the natural alignment of
the list pointers and MAX_NUMNODES is < 32768 at build time, not sure
if it's worth it.
