Actually minimum resolution depends on host HZ setting, but - yes -
essentially you have the same behaviour of
Yes, good thinking, but this should only be done if it actually impacts
something. Reducing overhead from 0.1% to 0.05% is not worthwhile if it
introduces extra complexity.
If the overhead is that small, why are we touching this code in the first
place?

On the overhead introduced: how do you measure it?

For Sparc32 this could be possible, the page table structures are not
