Hi folks, Perhaps it would be good to mention hugepages (https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests/4523) (not yet merged). Part of that is adjusting the megablock size to align with the hugepage size on most architectures. It would be good to make the community aware of this change early, and it would be great if some folks could step forward to test it, since changing one of these magic constants can be risky. What will likely happen is that we will make this optional to begin with, so you might have to do a custom build of the RTS/GHC to get hugepages support.
