+ help
+ Transparent Hugepages allows the kernel to use huge pages and
+ huge tlb transparently to the applications whenever possible.
+ This feature can improve computing performance to certain
+ applications by speeding up page faults during memory
+ allocation, by reducing the number of tlb misses and by speeding
+ up the pagetable walking.
+
+ If memory constrained on embedded, you may want to say N.
