Hello Linux-MM,
My containerized application which is suppose to have a very low RSS(by default containers patterns are to have low memory footprint) seems to be getting its BSS segment RSS bloated due to THPs. Although there is a huge zero page support, the overhead seems to be at-least 2MB even when a byte is dirtied. Also there are tune-able to disable this feature, but this seems to be a system wide setting. Is there a plan to make this setting cgroup aware ?
Thanks,
Vijay Nag
