Better test case timings: I changed from doing entire linear write testing to just touching the pages, to take memory bandwidth out of the equation. VirtualAlloc takes 0ms on 4k pages, 6ms on 2mb pages. Fault handling takes 60ms on 4k pages, 0ms on 2mb pages. So that's that.

Also, paging is kind of for chumps anyway? Like, the OS probably has to support it, but you don’t actually want to be doing it ever, so, probably should not design for that as a primary use case.

Writing 2MiB to NVMe should be microseconds, so we should instead be having this conversation about 1GiB pages
