Enumerate some pros and cons for increasing the page size.

Following are the pros and cons of increasing the page size:

pros:

• reduces pagetable size
• increases tlb coverage
• increases swapping I/O throughput, as small disk transaction times are dominated by seek & rotational delays.

cons:

• increases page fault latency, as swap response time is slower due to more data.
• increases internal fragmentation of pages, as there is more 'wasted page' in the working set
