Bug #: 31209
           Summary: Feature Request - Kernel Samepage Merging
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]
    Classification: Unclassified

I am playing a game (EVE Online) under Wine 1.5.8 and it consumes roughly 750MB
to 1GB.  I think a lot of that memory is static data.  Multiple copies of the
game can be run simultaneously (multi-boxing).

I would like to know if Wine can take advantage of the kernel's KSM (Kernel
Samepage Merging) feature.  I know the KVM (Kernel Virtual Machines) already
does this.

This would be really awesome to have!!

Thanks!
