I'll be setting up a new server in the next few days, I'll attempt to
use -48 and see if that issue is present or not.

Title:
  KSM causing performance and instability issues

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This seems to be a bug that has regressed, I have encountered the same
  issue as 2 other reports:

  LP: #1349897

  Running kernel: 3.13.0-46-generic

  This is replicated over many compute nodes (KVM) running OpenStack.
  The workaround is to disable KSM:

  echo 2 > /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run

  This fixes the issue temporarily.
