+ In a virtualized environment, allows unused and underutilized

+config PRECACHE
+ bool "Cache clean pages in transcendent memory"

+ help
+ Allows the transcendent memory pool to be used to store clean
+ page-cache pages which, under some circumstances, will greatly
+ reduce paging and thus improve performance. If unsure, say Y.

+config PRESWAP
+ bool "Swap pages to transcendent memory"
+ depends on TMEM
+ help
+ Allows the transcendent memory pool to be used as a pseudo-swap
+ device which, under some circumstances, will greatly reduce
+ swapping and thus improve performance. If unsure, say Y.
