I don't think we should be explaining the basics of OS memory management
in our documentation. And if we did, we shouldn't copy it verbatim from
the Debian wiki without attribution.

I think this patch should be cut down to the paragraphs that cover the
actual configuration.

On a technical note, use <xref> instead of <link> for linking.
doc/src/sgml/README.links contains some information.
