[Beowulf] memory bandwidth scaling

[Orion Poplawski]

We may be looking a getting a couple new compute nodes.  I'm leery though of
going too high in processor core counts.  Does anyone have any general
experiences with performance scaling up to 12 cores per processor with general
models like CM1/WRF/RAMS on the current crop of Xeon processors?
