MySQL Error 44: Large Page Size Determination Failure
Description
MySQL Error 44 indicates that the database server was unable to detect or utilize the operating system's large page memory capabilities. This usually occurs during server startup or memory initialization, preventing MySQL from leveraging potential performance benefits associated with large pages.

Known Causes
4 known causesOS Large Page Support Missing/Disabled
The underlying operating system (e.g., Linux hugepages) is not configured or enabled to provide large page memory support.
Insufficient User Permissions

Incorrect MySQL Configuration
MySQL is explicitly configured to use large pages (e.g., `large_pages=ON`), but the system does not support them or is misconfigured.
Underlying Kernel/Memory Issues
Problems with the operating system kernel or general memory management may prevent large page detection.
