Thanks -- it was "NUMA hint local percent" I was interested in and the
46.37% local hinting faults is likely indicative of the client/server
being load balanced across SD_NUMA domains without NUMA Balancing being
aggressive enough to fix it. At least I know I am not just seriously
unlucky or testing magical machines!
