I'd love to hear how the SGX EPC memory is typically used in what amounts and what's the performance implications when they get reclaimed and so on. ie. Please describe a realistic usage scenario of contention with sufficient details on how the system is set up, what the applications are using the SGX EPC memory for and how much, how the contention on memory affects the users and so on. Thank you. -- tejun
