Thanks for your comment.
I understand that some people don't like noise log. However, I don't understand the feeling of disliking the one-line
logthat is output when the instance is started.
In both MySQL and Oracle Database, a log is output if it fails to acquire HugePages with the same behavior as
huge_pages=tryin PostgreSQL.

I wonder if the problem here is that people are reluctant to add noise
to every starting system. There are people who have not configured
their system and don't want to see that noise, and then some people have configured their system and would like to know
aboutit if it doesn't work so they can be aware of that, but don't want to use "off"
because they don't want a hard failure. Would it be better if there were a new level "try_log" (or something), which
onlylogs a message if it tries and fails?
