[$] Transparent huge pages, NUMA locality, and performance regressions
Monday May 6, 2019. 07:15 PM , from LWN.net
Sometimes, the kernel's no-regression rule may not have the desired
result. Andrea Arcangeli led a session at the 2019 Linux Storage, Filesystem, and Memory-Management Summit to make the point that the recent reversion of a fix after a performance regression was reported has led to worse performance overall — with, as is his wont, a lot of technical information to back up that point. With a wider understanding of what is at stake here, he hopes, the reversion can itself be reverted.
