--- Comment #7 from Vipin Varghese (vipin.varghese at intel.com) ---
Hi Hideyuki,

I am not sure, whether it's the download or the missing information in the
documentation. 

URL: https://doc.dpdk.org/spp/setup/getting_started.html#setup
DPDK version: mainline from git
SPP version: spp-19.11.zip


Observation: Primary is resource allocator (huge page), without secondary it
consumes 1Gb (1 page from the hugepage). Starting of secondary without
```socket-limit``` it is free to consume next huge page.

Memory Usage:
# numastat -p spp_

Per-node process memory usage (in MBs)
PID                           Node 0          Node 1           Total

Note: I am increasing the priority.
