Most kudos though (if not all), should go to T. Janjusic. I just found it and backported to the latest stable: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=333051 > > Would it be possible to post your modification of Valgrind in Github, > Bitbucket, or some other repo? I'd like to try this out on my app, too. Sure, it is a good idea. I just did a quick&dirty import of the latest stable release 3.10.0. No git-svn , or anything fancy (github import failed, silently ignoring files...) no gitignore too. And then I applied the patch: https://github.com/bisdn/valgrind-hugepages Please note the comment in README.md, I cannot provide any support or take any responsibility. We will also delete this repo once there is a stable release. But you can at least try it, should work ;) > > Also, not sure if anybody sent this upstream to Valgrind, but if not, we > really should, so it just works by default from now on. It already is, there is simply no stable release yet (see Phillipe comment): https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=333051#c8 Cheers Marc > > Thanks, > Matthew.
