I asked a guy at Red Hat, who asked a guy....(reminding me of the chain of Djinn in "Godel Escher Bach") and got this reply:<br><br>"Hugepages are enabled on RHEL5 by default, so he's welcome to use those. Is there any particular reason he's not using those, and trying a recompile instead?"<br>

does anyone know if it's still possible to change the default<br>
page_size from 4k to something larger on RHEL v5 x86_64?<br>
<br>
My efforts to recompile the kernel with a larger page size are failing<br>
me, but i might be doing it wrong...<br>
<br>
thanks<br>
