Hugepages are not enabled by default for guests, so merely mounting hugetlbfs won't make them be used. You need to add the following to the guest <memoryBacking> <hugepages/> </memoryBacking> To enable use of hugepages for RAM allocation. Sven, thanks for the report - I've added a note to "How to test" section in the wiki |
