Anyone in the know,

I am using a 16KB page size for my Lion systems.

Under the help section of make menuconfig is says:

4KB best for ia32

8KB best for ia64

16KB best for ia64

64KB Not for Itanium

I just want to know what is the gain or loss if I used 8KB instead of 16KB
page size.

Also why is the 64KB page size bad for Itanium?

Thanks.
