Option `experimental_hpa_max_purge_nhp` introduced for backward compatibility reasons: to make it possible to have behaviour similar to buggy `hpa_strict_min_purge_interval` implementation. When `experimental_hpa_max_purge_nhp` is set to -1, there is no limit to number of slabs we'll purge on each iteration. Otherwise, we'll purge no more than `experimental_hpa_max_purge_nhp` hugepages (slabs). This in turn means we might not purge enough dirty pages to satisfy `hpa_dirty_mult` requirement. Combination of `hpa_dirty_mult`, `experimental_hpa_max_purge_nhp` and `hpa_strict_min_purge_interval` options allows us to have steady rate of pages returned back to the system. This provides a strickier latency guarantees as number of `madvise` calls is bounded (and hence number of TLB shootdowns is limited) in exchange to weaker memory usage guarantees. |

jemalloc is a general purpose malloc(3) implementation that emphasizes fragmentation avoidance and scalable concurrency support. jemalloc first came into use as the FreeBSD libc allocator in 2005, and since then it has found its way into numerous applications that rely on its predictable behavior. In 2010 jemalloc development efforts broadened to include developer support features such as heap profiling and extensive monitoring/tuning hooks. Modern jemalloc releases continue to be integrated back into FreeBSD, and therefore versatility remains critical. Ongoing development efforts trend toward making jemalloc among the best allocators for a broad range of demanding applications, and eliminating/mitigating weaknesses that have practical repercussions for real world applications. The COPYING file contains copyright and licensing information. The INSTALL file contains information on how to configure, build, and install jemalloc. The ChangeLog file contains a brief summary of changes for each release. URL: https://jemalloc.net/
