Configure Postgres Performance Huge Pages

The document shows commands to configure and view hugepages on a Linux system. It pipes the output of awk command parsing /proc/meminfo into sort and grep to display hugepage sizes and usage. It then echoes a configuration to /etc/sysctl.d/42-hugepages.conf to set the number of hugepages to 2048, with each page being 2 MB in size for a total of 4 GB of hugepages. Finally, it runs sysctl --system to apply the configuration.
