Subject: [PATCH 3 of 4] sparsemem: reduce i386 PAE section size
Date: Thu, 27 Mar 2008 17:28:39 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <b7d0773c79887ca98d6c.1206664119@localhost> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <patchbomb.1206664116@localhost>

A 1G section size makes memory hotplug too coarse in a virtual
environment.  Retuce it by a factor of 2 to 512M.  I would have liked
to make it smaller, but it runs out of reserved flags in the page flags.
