27 system in terms of performance and resource consumption
28 and it is the best option for smaller systems.

367 more than it requires. To deal with this, mmap() is able to trim off
368 the excess and return it to the allocator.
369
370 If trimming is enabled, the excess is trimmed off and returned to the
371 system allocator, which can cause extra fragmentation, particularly
372 if there are a lot of transient processes.
373
374 If trimming is disabled, the excess is kept, but not used, which for
375 long-term mappings means that the space is wasted.
376
377 Trimming can be dynamically controlled through a sysctl option
378 (/proc/sys/vm/nr_trim_pages) which specifies the minimum number of
379 excess pages there must be before trimming should occur, or zero if
380 no trimming is to occur.

451 for clean pages that the kernel's pageframe replacement algorithm
452 (PFRA) would like to keep around, but can't since there isn't enough

458 filesystem wishes to access a page in a file on disk, it first
459 checks cleancache to see if it already contains it; if it does,
460 the page is copied into the kernel and a disk access is avoided.
461 When a transcendent memory driver is available (such as zcache or
462 Xen transcendent memory), a significant I/O reduction
463 may be achieved. When none is available, all cleancache calls

472 help
473 Frontswap is so named because it can be thought of as the opposite
474 of a "backing" store for a swap device. The data is stored into
475 "transcendent memory", memory that is not directly accessible or
476 addressable by the kernel and is of unknown and possibly
477 time-varying size. When space in transcendent memory is available,
478 a significant swap I/O reduction may be achieved. When none is
479 available, all frontswap calls are reduced to a single pointer-
480 compare-against-NULL resulting in a negligible performance hit
481 and swap data is stored as normal on the matching swap device.
482
483 If unsure, say Y to enable frontswap.

491 This enables the Contiguous Memory Allocator which allows other
492 subsystems to allocate big physically-contiguous blocks of memory.
493 CMA reserves a region of memory and allows only movable pages to
494 be allocated from it. This way, the kernel can use the memory for
495 pagecache and when a subsystem requests for contiguous area, the
496 allocated pages are migrated away to serve the contiguous request.

543 A lightweight compressed cache for swap pages. It takes
544 pages that are in the process of being swapped out and attempts to
545 compress them into a dynamically allocated RAM-based memory pool.
546 This can result in a significant I/O reduction on swap device and,
547 in the case where decompressing from RAM is faster that swap device
548 reads, can also improve workload performance.
549
550 This is marked experimental because it is a new feature (as of
551 v3.11) that interacts heavily with memory reclaim. While these
552 interactions don't cause any known issues on simple memory setups,
553 they have not be fully explored on the large set of potential
554 configurations and workloads that exist.
