Nice result! Thanks for testing.
I will make a proper formatted patch soon.
Then, your concern is solved? I think that performance of
always-always on this test case can't follow up performance of
always-never because migration cost to make hugepage is additionally
charged to always-always case. Instead, it will have more hugepage
mapping and it may result in better performance in some situation.
I guess that it is intention of that option.
Thanks.
