Limiting the allocation of higher order pages to the closest NUMA node and enabling direct memory reclaim provides not only failsafe against situations when memory becomes too much fragmented and the allocator is not able to satisfy the request from the local node but falls back to remote pages (HUGEPAGE) but also offers performance improvement. Accessing remote pages suffers due to bandwidth limitations and could be avoided if memory becomes defragmented and in most cases without using manual compaction. (/proc/sys/vm/compact_memory) Note: On certain distros such as RHEL, the proactive compaction is disabled.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
