Why do I have md running when I do not have any raid storage?

It's just a thread, presumably idle. Probably gets started at boot rather than on demand, so if it wasn't there you wouldn't be able to make new md devices.  Just conjecture.

Would you say the same about the kernel thread ksmd?
ps -ef shows it running, and using 0 time.

Thanx Ed!
What's more expensive:
keep duplicate pages, and use a lock to
sync them when any one of them is modified,
or use a single copy, and do copy-on-write, which still
requires that the the page be sync'ed with the written
page?
