[DOC-10592] Add details about NUMA

+In a [NUMA (non-uniform memory access) architecture](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-uniform_memory_access), the system’s memory is physically distributed across multiple memory banks or "nodes", and each node is assigned to a processor. A processor can access its local memory much faster than non-local memory. This non-uniform memory access can lead to performance differences depending on data location.
+
+CockroachDB is written in Go, which has no support for NUMA scheduling or pinning. To run multiple CockroachDB clusters on a NUMA architecture:
+
+- Assign no more than 32 cores to the node for each instance.
+- Ensure that your orchestration framework, process manager, or startup scripts start each CockroachDB in a separate NUMA node.
+- Use the `--locality` flag to indicate when multiple CockroachDB instances are running on a given physical host.
+- Ensure that each CockroachDB cluster writes to a unique set of storage volumes (block devices).
