The lack of mmap is a problem, especially given how dynamic link heavy Linux distros are. It’s going to cause a lot of extra RAM usage and the kernel won’t know to dump those pages efficiently and will swap them to disk. The extra RAM usage will probably be recovered - the kernel typically these days has deduplication capabilities - but the lack of efficient swap is a problem.
