Hello hackers, I'm announcing the availability of a branch adding support for 1 GB superpages to FreeBSD. https://github.com/Seb-LineRate/freebsd/commits/seb/stable-10/1-gig-pages The branch is based on work done by Line Rate Systems and F5 Networks, and used in our LROS load-balancing product. Our product is based on FreeBSD 9.1; the branch I linked to above is our 1 gig page support rebased onto stable/10. I probably messed something up in the rebase, as lots of things changed both in pmap and vm since 9.1. There are also a handful of commits that i haven't gotten to yet, but they are less consequential - just performance improvements to the buddy allocator. I hope to push those over the next few days. It should be relatively easy to rebase the branch onto Current. This is a work in progress, and I would appreciate feedback and comments. -- Sebastian Kuzminsky
