I can't recall - it was discussed here in the list and some users had troubles. I hope
some of the devs can chime in.

In fact, I am very interested in the part you mentioned, because my environment is running
relational database, which usually requires a large amount of memory,
and some systems clearly need to configure HUGEPAGE memory (such as Oracle).
Could you elaborate on some technical details about the management of huge page memory?
And the difference between 4.3 and 4.4 in this respect?
Thank you very much!

memory limit
It depends on the numa configuration of the host.
If you have 256G per CPU, it's best to stay into that range.
Also, consider disabling transparent huge pages on the host & VM.
Since 4.4 Regular Huge Pages (do not confuse them with THP) can be used on the
Hypervisors, while on 4.3 there were some issues but I can't provode any details.
