Martin v. Löwis <mar...@v.loewis.de> added the comment:
In order to arrive at some resolution of this issue, I'm answering the original
question ("Should Python enable a way for folks to inform the OS of
MADV_MERGEABLE memory?"). The discussion has shown that the answer is "no";
there are no pages of memory where this would provide any advantage.
Closing as "won't fix". Anybody reopening it should
a) provide a patch with the actual change to be made, and
b) accompany it with a benchmark demonstrating some gain.
