Hi, 

How to use correctly huge memory pages in native application? Does it require a change in the mic OS settings?

There are several documents on this, please study a bit and make your question more specific

The easy way is with transparent huge pages, which occur by default in mpss released in the last 2 years.  I would suggest not trying this with older mpss.
