I had this issue using JDK17 and 18 as well, so at least by default things are not better. =)

I wonder if there is a way that does not involve using `numactl`. It needs the container to run in privileged mode and that is not how the containers are run in the drag-racing benchmark...

Can you use the jvm’s -xx:+UseNUMA option instead?

But in other cases I have it seems to not help that much. Not sure how to minimize those, but will try figure it out.
