I had earlier raised a query on the github.com/google/tcmalloc
regarding how I can force tcmalloc to back memory with hugetlbfs instead of using Transparent Huge Pages. I have attached the link to my query below. Please let me know if there is any possible way to do this.

Note: Not to get confused with gperftools/tcmalloc ; the procedure here is rather straightforward.
