Hello Linux-MM,

My containerized application which is suppose to have a very low RSS(by
default containers patterns are to have low memory footprint) seems to be
getting its BSS segment RSS bloated due to THPs. Although there is a huge
zero page support, the overhead seems to be at-least 2MB even when a byte
is dirtied. Also there are tune-able to disable this feature,  but this
seems to be a system wide setting. Is there a plan to make this setting
cgroup aware ?

Thanks,
Vijay Nag
