Running 80 tasks in the same group, or as threads of the same process, results in the memory getting scanned 80x as fast as it would be if a single task was using the memory. This really hurts some workloads. Scale the scan period by the number of tasks in the numa group, and the shared / private ratio, so the average rate at which memory in the group is scanned corresponds roughly to the rate at which a single task would scan its memory.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
