+ Set <seealso marker="#MMscs">super carrier</seealso> reserve physical
+ memory flag. This flag defaults to <c>true</c>. When this flag is
+ <c>true</c>, physical memory will be reserved for the whole super
+ carrier at once when it is created. The reservation will after that
+ be left unchanged. When this flag is set to <c>false</c> only virtual
+ address space will be reserved for the super carrier upon creation.
+ The system will attempt to reserve physical memory upon carrier
+ creations in the super carrier, and attempt to unreserve physical
+ memory upon carrier destructions in the super carrier.
+ <br/><br/>
+ <em>NOTE</em>: What reservation of physical memory actually means
+ highly depends on the operating system, and how it is configured. For
+ example, different memory overcommit settings on Linux drastically
+ change the behaviour. Also note, setting this flag to <c>false</c>
+ may not be supported on all systems. This flag will in that case

+ Set super carrier size (in MB). The super carrier size defaults to
+ zero; i.e, the super carrier is by default disabled. The super
+ carrier is a large continuous area in the virtual address space.
+ The system will always try to create new carriers in the super
+ carrier.
