It's been a while, but I am back with some results.
For 2M i 4K pages I wrote simple app which mmaps and unmaps a lot of memory (60GB/288CPU) in parallel and does it ten times to get rid of some os/threading overhead.
Then I created an app which mixes pages in sort of pseudo random random way.
I executed those 10 times under "time" (once with THP=on and once with THP=off) command and calculated sum, min, max, avg of sys, real, user time which was necessary due to significant bias in results.
In overall it seems that this change has no negative impact on performance:
4K THP=on,off -> no significant change
2M THP=on,off -> it might be a tiny bit slower, but still close to measurement error
MIX THP=on,off -> no significant change
If you have any concerns about test correctness please let me know.
Below I added test applications and test results.
Thanks,
Lukas
