+ Enable Kernel Samepage Merging: KSM periodically scans those areas
+ of an application's address space that an app has advised may be
+ mergeable. When it finds pages of identical content, it replaces
+ the many instances by a single resident page with that content, so

+ Recommended for use with KVM, or with other duplicative applications.
