Are you sure about that? The electricity cost alone for such a beast
is quite high ;-)
I've just arrived at the conclusion that page migration does _not_
have a problem with transferring the dirty storage key: I had been
thinking that your testing might stumble on that issue, and need a
further patch, but I'll explain in other mail why now I think not.
That is good to know, one problem less on the list.
