If I'm not mistaken - NUMA was disabled by default starting w/ 11.2 Refer Enable Oracle NUMA support with Oracle Server Version 11.2.0.1 (Doc ID 864633.1) which states "Starting with 11.2.0.1, Oracle NUMA support is disabled by default." Also - USE_LARGE_PAGES To Enable HugePages (Doc ID 1392497.1) I believe that starting w/ 11.2 you had to use the "_enable_NUMA_support" parameter to allow / enable this feature.
