And the only way to get around that is to either: * use LD_PRELOAD; or * patch the kernel with something like UKSM or PKSM. (i skip ptrace can of worms here intentionally) To overcome this restriction, lets employ a new remote madvise API. This can be used by some small userspace helper daemon that will do auto-KSM job for us. I think of two major consumers of remote KSM hints: * hosts, that run containers, especially similar ones and especially in a trusted environment, sharing the same runtime like Node.js; * heavy applications, that can be run in multiple instances, not limited to opensource ones like Firefox, but also those that cannot be modified since they are binary-only and, maybe, statically linked. Speaking of statistics, more numbers can be found in the very first submission, that is related to this one [1]. For my current setup with two Firefox instances I get 100 to 200 MiB saved for the second instance depending on the amount of tabs. 1 FF instance with 15 tabs: $ echo "$(cat /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/pages_sharing) * 4 / 1024" | bc 410 2 FF instances, second one has 12 tabs (all the tabs are different): $ echo "$(cat /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/pages_sharing) * 4 / 1024" | bc 592 At the very moment I do not have specific numbers for containerised workload, but those should be comparable in case the containers share similar/same runtime.
