Yes, we should be, thanks very much for catching this.

At least I documented what I didn't do?  :)

Yes, you're right on both counts.  I'd been using PUD_SIZE for a while in
testing and meant to switch it back to KTASK_MEM_CHUNK (128M) but used PMD_SIZE
by mistake.  PUD_SIZE chunks have made thread finishing times too spread out
in some cases, so 128M seems to be a reasonable compromise.

Thanks for the thorough and quick review.
