The idea is to use this action to all areas that are not written too frequently, this way KSM can save more memory without too much overhead. But I have to test it better and collect some data to see if it really makes sense, perhaps it is better to leave this patch for later. I would like to know your opinion on this, do you think it makes sense? -- Atenciosamente, Pedro Demarchi Gomes.
