Thanks to Francisco Roque and Grzegorz Bakalarski who pointed out to me why

Page 7 describes Memory scrubbing:

    The scrubber is implemented as a kernel thread, which periodically
    wakes up and traverses a portion of physical memory. The scrubber is
    setup so that it will traverse all of physical memory within 12 hours.
