Benchmarking transparent versus 1GiB static huge page performance in Linux virtual machines

The other is configured to use 1GiB static huge pages (SHP), which requires special configuration on the virtualization host and in the […] The post Benchmarking transparent versus 1GiB static huge page performance in Linux virtual machines appeared first on Red Hat Developer....
