Subject: Re: [PATCH] Document huge memory/cache overhead of memory controller in Kconfig

Don't make it too verbose or nobody will read it. It should
be more like a one paragraph abstract on a scientific paper
about the linux memory controller.

But I think it should include some variant of the warning that
was in the original patch in this thread (that could be the
second paragraph)
