Hello Mel,
    You helped some time ago with contention in lock_pages on very large boxes. 
You worked with Jack Steiner on this.  Currently I am tasked with improving this 
area even more.  So I am fishing for any more ideas that would be productive or 
worth trying. 

I have some numbers from a 512 machine.
