Package: linux-image-2.6.32-rc8-amd64
Version: 2.6.32~rc8-1~experimental.1
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
Kernel SamePage Merging is a recent linux kernel feature which combines
identical memory pages from multiple processes into one copy on write memory
region.
It is especially interesting on a host where you run several kvm guest
with the same operating system.
KSM does not change anything but if a process (such as recent version of kvm)
requests it with a call to madvise.
So, please, enable this feature in 2.6.32 Debian kernel.
Best regards,
Vincent
