I have found interesting blog:

http://developerblog.redhat.com/2014/03/10/examining-huge-pages-or-transparent-huge-pages-performance/

It's explain how to see if hugepage impact performance or not.

Hi Alexandre 

I have installed your patches and with some test of MS-SQL-Server, i see a 
better behavior in terms of speed (soon i will give the comparisons). 

Moreover, i guess that i have problems of Hugapages. 
Please see this link, and answer me if you can:

Hi, 
can you test this: 

http://odisoweb1.odiso.net/pve-qemu-kvm_2.2-2_amd64.deb 
http://odisoweb1.odiso.net/qemu-server_3.3-5_amd64.deb 


then edit your vm config file: 


sockets: 2 
cores: 4 
memory: 262144 
numa0: memory=131072,policy=bind 
numa1: memory=131072,policy=bind 


(you need 1 numa by socket, total numa memory must be equal to vm memory). 

you can change cores number if you want. 


and start the vm ?

Hi, 

some news. 

It's seem that current proxmox qemu build don't have numa support enable. 

So, previous command line don't work. 


I'll send a patch for pve-qemu-kvm and also to add numa options to vm config 
file.

About the command line, each vm is a kvm process. 

So start your vm with current config, do a "ps -aux" , copy the big "kvm -id 
... " command line for your vm, 

stop the vm. 

then, 

add my specials lines about numa, 

and paste the command line to start the vm ! 


(kvm is so simple ;)
