    [$] Memory controller performance improvements

    Description:
    The kernel's memory controller works within the control-group mechanism to enforce memory-usage limits on groups of processes. This component has
    often had performance problems, so there is continual interest in
    optimizing it. Shakeel Butt led a session during the memory-management
    track of the 2025 Linux Storage, Filesystem, Memory-Management, and BPF
    Summit to look at the current state of the memory controller and what can
    be done to reduce its overhead.
