For example applications like Microsoft Word or World of Warcraft cannot use huge pages because users won't mess with security policies then reboot the machine and immediately start the application as administrator and never close it, and these are the steps required of the end user for an application to use huge pages on Windows.
- layer8 3y agoAre you positive that those applications even have large-page support?
- anonymoushn 3y agoIt doesn't make much sense for developers to spend time adding features that users cannot use.
