I stuck a printk in there. It's not exactly called 100x a second, but there were 5 distinct users just for me to boot and ssh in:
[ 3.130408] meminfo read called by: 'udevd' 1 [ 3.326649] meminfo read called by: 'dhclient-script' 2 [ 4.624943] meminfo read called by: 'klogd' 3 [ 8.008019] meminfo read called by: 'dhclient-script' 4 [ 8.083091] meminfo read called by: 'ps' 5 [ 48.171038] meminfo read called by: 'bash' 6
Granted, those were likely privileged. But, that's a good list of processes that I would rather not see break.
