it seems when searching the internet that I see a few links about setting up hugepages for servers and Oracle. The only thing I found close was:



disable transparent hugepages



Or this one, but why do I need to set up a new user/group?



https://wiki.debian.org/Hugepages



What I'd like to do is just simply allow my kernel to allow for any of the three supported page sizes (4096 bytes, 2MiB, and 1 GiB - the latter b/c I have pdpe1gb from /proc/cpuinfo). I notice always that getconf PAGESIZE always returns 4096, as well as cat /proc/meminfo never showing any of the DirectMap1G.



I did install hugepages as well as libhugetlbfs*....



Thanks in advance!
