Hi, 1. in INSTALL.DPDK.md, huge page size is recommended as 2MB pages. Earlier i remember seeing some reference to use 1GB huge pages. is there any noticeable performance improvement in using 1G hugepages vs 2M pages ? 2. is there a way to allocate 1G hugepages using sysctl. Default hugepage size is 2M and i didn't find any way to modify it using sysctl. is grub config the only way to allocate 1GB pages ? 3. Is there any difference in allocating huge pages run time vs persistent(/etc/sysctl.d/hugepages.conf) ? will the hugepages allocated at runtime will be fragmented or something?
