Last year I had the idea of tracing the memory accesses of the system
to improve the VM - the traces could be used to test algorithms in
userspace. The difficulty is of course making all memory accesses
fault without destroying system performance.

Linux Trace Toolkit (http://www.opersys.com/LTT) does that. 
I dld the ltt-usenix paper and skim read it. It didn't seem to talk
about page faults much. Where should I look?
