    Am i wrong? What are the benefits (besides saving a kernel struct per page?) what would be the speed gsin - if any
    I think, it is for virtualization in that cases, where host system has enought memory for whole memory of all guests. Another benefit of this is memory is managed only by one kernel, so you don't get swaped out by host kernel i supose.
