[PATCH v2 06/12] mm/mglru: use a smaller batch for reclaim
Posted by Kairui Song via B4 Relay 4 days, 16 hours ago
From: Kairui Song <kasong@tencent.com>

With a fixed number to reclaim calculated at the beginning, making each
following step smaller should reduce the lock contention and avoid
over-aggressive reclaim of folios, as it will abort earlier when the
number of folios to be reclaimed is reached.
