Dear Mulyadi, Thank you for your response. And apologies for being impolite.
On AnonHugePages, I do not allocate them, some application is doing that in our cluster and I have no way to tell which application it is, unless I can hook up monitoring tools one each compute nodes that keeps track of which application is allocating huge pages. Not sure if I even know how to do that. Any hints will be helpful. -regards!!
