 If you want to know more exact memory usage, you should use RSS+CACHE(+SWAP)
 value in memory.stat(see 5.2).
 
+5.6 numa_stat
+
+This is similar to numa_maps but per-memcg basis. This is useful to add visibility
+of numa locality information in memcg since the pages are allowed to be allocated
+at any physical node. One of the usecase is evaluating application performance by
+combining this information with the cpu allocation to the application.
+
+We export "total", "file", "anon" and "unevictable" pages per-node for each memcg.

 6. Hierarchy support
 
 The memory controller supports a deep hierarchy and hierarchical accounting.
