H A D | mempolicy.c | diff de1c9ce6f07fec0381a39a9d0b379ea35aa1167f Mon Oct 07 05:29:39 CDT 2013 Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> sched/numa: Skip some page migrations after a shared fault
Shared faults can lead to lots of unnecessary page migrations, slowing down the system, and causing private faults to hit the per-pgdat migration ratelimit.
This patch adds sysctl numa_balancing_migrate_deferred, which specifies how many shared page migrations to skip unconditionally, after each page migration that is skipped because it is a shared fault.
This reduces the number of page migrations back and forth in shared fault situations. It also gives a strong preference to the tasks that are already running where most of the memory is, and to moving the other tasks to near the memory.
Testing this with a much higher scan rate than the default still seems to result in fewer page migrations than before.
Memory seems to be somewhat better consolidated than previously, with multi-instance specjbb runs on a 4 node system.
