MMtests has a THP scale microbenchmark that deliberately fragments memory and then allocates THPs to stress compaction. It's not a page reclaim benchmark and recent kernels avoid excessive compaction but this patch reduced system CPU usage 4.0.0 4.0.0 baseline batchmigrate-v1 User 970.70 1012.24 System 2067.48 1840.00 Elapsed 1520.63 1529.66 Note that this particular workload was not TLB flush intensive with peaks in interrupts during the compaction phase. The 4.0 kernel peaked at 345K interrupts/second, the kernel that batches reclaim TLB entries peaked at 13K interrupts/second and this patch peaked at 10K interrupts/second.
