This performance group measures the L3 traffic induced by false-sharing. The false-sharing rate uses all memory loads as reference. For systems with multiple CPU sockets, this performance group also measures the false-sharing of cache lines over socket boundaries. Please keep in mind that the MEM_LOAD_UOPS_L3_HIT_RETIRED_XSNP_HITM event may undercount by as much as 40% (Errata HSW150).
