153	  size is about 10% smaller with bzip2, in comparison to gzip.
154	  Bzip2 uses a large amount of memory. For modern kernels you

169	  XZ uses the LZMA2 algorithm and instruction set specific
170	  BCJ filters which can improve compression ratio of executable
171	  code. The size of the kernel is about 30% smaller with XZ in
172	  comparison to gzip. On architectures for which there is a BCJ
173	  filter (i386, x86_64, ARM, IA-64, PowerPC, and SPARC), XZ
174	  will create a few percent smaller kernel than plain LZMA.
175

278	  If you say Y here, a user level program will be able to map
279	  file names to handle and then later use the handle for
280	  different file system operations. This is useful in implementing
281	  userspace file servers, which now track files using handles instead
282	  of names. The handle would remain the same even if file names
283	  get renamed. Enables open_by_handle_at(2) and name_to_handle_at(2)

292	  system call.  If you intend to run programs built on libc5 or

1683	   SLUB is a slab allocator that minimizes cache line usage
1684	   instead of managing queues of cached objects (SLAB approach).
1685	   Per cpu caching is realized using slabs of objects instead
1686	   of queues of objects. SLUB can use memory efficiently

1783	help
1784	  Kernel modules are small pieces of compiled code which can
1785	  be inserted in the running kernel, rather than being
1786	  permanently built into the kernel.  You use the "modprobe"
1787	  tool to add (and sometimes remove) them.  If you say Y here,
1788	  many parts of the kernel can be built as modules (by
1789	  answering M instead of Y where indicated): this is most
1790	  useful for infrequently used options which are not required
1791	  for booting.  For more information, see the man pages for
1792	  modprobe, lsmod, modinfo, insmod and rmmod.
1793
1794	  If you say Y here, you will need to run "make
1795	  modules_install" to put the modules under /lib/modules/
