Maybe the TLB could be put *after* the cache, by using globally addressable memory, and having ranged memory permissions for such large slabs of memory, instead of paged memory be the only option (you can still defrag by putting a TLB and MMU *behind* the cache, which like an IOMMU has minimal overhead). We have 64-bit of address space now—there is no shortage of address space.
