+	  This option select the standard 4KiB Linux page size and the only
+	  available option on many architectures. Using 4KiB page size will
+	  minimize memory consumption and is therefore recommended for low
+	  memory systems.
+	  Some software that is written for x86 systems makes incorrect

+	  This option is usually a good compromise between memory

+	  workloads, often saving a level of page table lookups compared
+	  to 4KB pages as well as reducing TLB pressure and overhead of

+	  Using 32KiB page size will result in slightly higher performance

+	  16KiB pages.	This option is available only on cnMIPS cores.

+config PAGE_SIZE_64KB

+	help
+	  Using 64KiB page size will result in slightly higher performance
+	  kernel at the price of much higher memory consumption compared to
+	  4KiB or 16KiB pages.
+	  This is not suitable for general-purpose workloads but the
+	  better performance may be worth the cost for certain types of
+	  supercomputing or database applications that work mostly with
+	  large in-memory data rather than small files.

+	help
+	  256KiB pages have little practical value due to their extreme
+	  memory usage.  The kernel will only be able to run applications
+	  that have been compiled with '-zmax-page-size' set to 256KiB
+	  (the default is 64KiB or 4KiB on most architectures).
