Shrinking Memmap

The kernel takes 1.6% of your RAM for a data structure called memmap. Much of the information in it is redundant and can be expressed more efficiently. The problem is that much of the kernel relies on the current format of memmap. Join Matthew for a high-level overview of the multi-year project to reduce the size of memmap. No prior experience of kernel programming is needed, but understanding C data structures will be an advantage.
