This class collects 'Kernel Samepage Merging' statistics. KSM is a memory de-duplication feature of the Linux Kernel (2.6.32+).
It can be enabled, if compiled into your kernel, by echoing 1 to /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run. You can find more information about KSM at http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/KSM.
- KSM built into your kernel. It does not have to be enabled, but the stats will be less than useful if it isn't :-)
All keys are prefixed with nodes.hostname by default
