Here is (was) the 32T system with 2048 cores with HT disabled:

....

BIOS-e820: 00000e6000000000 - 00000e7dff000000 (usable)

Note that on UV, there is some memory reserved at the end
of each node that is used for the directory RAM by the
UV HUB.  That is why the ranges are not contiguous.  I'd
have to double check with the BIOS guys, but I don't believe
they would have collapsed ranges across nodes even if the
directory RAM did not exist.
