Re: Strange finding about kernel samepage merging

[Michael Roth <mdroth@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

My guess is you end up with 2 copies of each page on the guest: the copy
 in the guest's page cache, and the copy in the buffer you allocated. From the 
perspective of the host this all looks like anonymous memory, so ksm 
merges the pages.
