>>1.) Is there some edivence that it is faster (under realistic workload)?
I known that transparent hugepage can be really a problem with a lot of database (oracle,mysql,redis,..) I never bench it myself, but I hope that Cesar will do it ;). Disable transparent hugepage is a solution, but it's disable it for all the vms. I think that static hugepage can do the job, but it need to be tested. >>2.) Where do we free/dealloc those hugepages? Are the associated with the KVM >>process somehow? I'm not sure that when hupage are defined, they use memory by default. But when the kvm process is starting, the memory is allocated/reserverd for the kvm process, and the memory is free up on kvm process stop. ----- Mail original ----- De: "dietmar" <diet...@proxmox.com> À: "aderumier" <aderum...@odiso.com>, "pve-devel" <pve-devel@pve.proxmox.com> Envoyé: Samedi 20 Décembre 2014 09:32:42 Objet: Re: [pve-devel] qemu-server:add support for hugetlbfs > This add support for manually defined hugepages, > which can be faster than transparent hugepages for some workload like > databases 1.)
