NUMA configuration - Socket and Cores
Currently we are using vSphere 6.0 and will be migrating to 6.5 in due course.
I was watching a presentation by VMware expert:
where he states that for NUMA the best configuration is to mimic or not exceed the Physical ESXi Host configuration.
FORMULA: Eg.1 Socket x n cores for < 10 and 2 Socket x n cores for > 10

My question: Currently I have VMs that have configurations of 2 - 6 sockets x n cores. Once I upgrade to vSphere 6.5 should I reconfigure as per the
formula given above ie 1 or 2 Socket only.
