I just setup hugepages (1024 pages a 2 MB) according this hint http://www.pythian.com/news/1326/performance-tuning-hugepages-in-linux/ anonymizer2:~# echo 1024 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages anonymizer2:~# cat /proc/meminfo | grep -i hugepage HugePages_Total: 126 HugePages_Free: 126 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 HugePages_Surp: 0 Hugepagesize: 2048 kB Does tor process automagically take advantage from hugepages after restarting the process or has tor source code to be modified? regards Olaf *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@torproject.org with unsubscribe or-talk in the body. http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/
