The cost is the same once the data is in RAM. Loading and storing large pages is costlier. It is not at all that simple.

Large pages, large blocks, and large problems Posted Sep 21, 2007 19:48 UTC (Fri) by avik (guest, #704) [Link] My comment (and Linus' remarks) is talking about large pages, not largeblocks. The assumption is that this is a memory workload, not an I/O workload. There's no disk I/O involved.
