Apply the following patch to mmtests 0.05 and then from within the
mmtests directory do

./run-mmtests.sh testrun

At the very least you should have oprofile installed. Optionally install
libnuma-devel but the test will cope if it's not available. Automatic package
installation will be in 0.06 for opensuse at least but other distros can
be easily supported if I know the names of the equivalent packages.

The above command will run both with and without profiling. The profiles
will be in work/log/pft-testrun/fine-profile-timer/base/ and an annotated
profile will be included in the file. If you have "recode" installed the
annotated profile will be compressed and can be extracted with something like

grep -A 9999999 "=== annotate ===" oprofile-compressed.report | grep -v annotate | recode /b64..char | gunzip -c

Each of the memcg functions will be small but when all the functions that
are in mm/memcontrol.c are added together it becomes a big problem.  What I
actually showed at the meeting was based on piping the oprofile report
through another quick and dirty script to match functions to filenames.

The bulk of this patch is renaming  profile-disabled-hooks-a.sh to
profile-hooks-a.sh. Let me know if you run into problems.
