This may be a dumb question, but can there be multiple sized pages?
E.g., can a system of multiple machines have page size X on some machines and page size Y on other machines?
Additionally, I'm a little concerned about saying "hugepage" today, when that might be the normal tomorrow (kind of like calling something "new" -- someday, it won't be new anymore). I'd rather either specify the page size or not; not use an adjective that may or may not have meaning someday / on some platforms.
