NB This is even more important in VM scenarios, where second-level address translation means something needs to walk a guest-physical-to-system-physical map for each level of the guest-virtual-to-guest-physical map. So TLB locality becomes even more important, and using huge pages cuts down on a multiplier in resolving TLB misses.
