nodeos was originally written so that it attempted to lock database memory on startup. Due to a defect this functionality wasn't always enabled and this was fixed in 1.2.4 (#5546). However this change was quickly regretted and reverted for 1.2.5 (#5618). The reason it was problematic was that there were a lot of users running nodeos as root and Linux will happily try to lock an unlimited amount of memory as root even at the process' peril.
We need to reintroduce memory locking as an option. Additionally, large page support should be added. I've noted over 10% improvement in database performance when using 1GB pages.
