SubjectRe: Tmem [PATCH 0/5] (Take 3): Transcendent memory
Hi!

So... take 1GB system, run your favourite benchmark. Then reserve
512MB for tmem, rerun your benchmark, then run the system with
512MB/512MB swap, rerun the benchmark?

Tune the sizes so that first to last run differ by 100% or so, and see
how much first and second differs? If it is in 1% range, you are
probably doing good...?
