Go poke around for auto_lpg_* variables in the kernel.  The policies
can be tweaked.

One of these days I need to write up a blog entry on how it all
works....

We've disabled LPOOB (auto large page) on x86 until we get more data
that shows it helps rather than hinders.  But it runs on almost all
SPARC systems (exception is UltraSPARC-III, due it's single
programmable TLB, US-III+ and beyond are fine).
