I disagree with the AI part. Because hugepages is one of the things that can be guessed to improve performance when doing something with substantial amount of data.

So anyone familiar with the space could have suggested something like that without knowing the details of the problem. Hence it is not useful advice IMO.

That aside, the blog post was really cool to read and a instant favorite, wish there were more english posts on the blog.

Especially like the hardware limit based expectations, detailed measurements and the writing style.
