For busy site reliability engineers, ensuring system reliability, scalability, and overall health is an imperative that’s getting harder to achieve in ever-expanding, cloud-native, container-based environments. To get a more granular look into telemetry data, many analysts rely on custom metrics using Prometheus.

In a steady-state process (not allocating excessively) on a system with sufficient memory (this system had 64 GiB of RAM and roughly 47 GiB of that was available) the number of page faults should be close to zero, and this was a long way from that. Every second the system process wakes up and runs KeBalanceSetManager.
