The performance delta between 2.5.62-mjb1 and 2.5.62-mjb2 is caused
by the partial object-based rmap patch (written by Dave McCracken).
I expect this patch to have an increasing impact on workloads with
more processes, and it should give a substantial space saving as
well as a performance increase. Results from 16x NUMA-Q system ...
