[Beowulf] rhel page_size

[Peter St. John]

I asked a guy at Red Hat, who asked a guy....(reminding me of the chain of
Djinn in "Godel Escher Bach") and got this reply:

"Hugepages are enabled on RHEL5 by default, so he's welcome to use those. Is
there any particular reason he's not using those, and trying a recompile
instead?"
