+ The standard allocator will fragment memory over time which means
+ that high order allocations will fail even if kswapd is running. If
+ this option is set, the allocator will try and group page types
+ based on their ability to migrate or reclaim. This is a best effort
+ attempt at lowering fragmentation which a few workloads care about.
+ The loss is a more complex allocator that may perform slower. If
