Submit Notes

The config file option 'submit' was used.
 For peak modules using 1/2 the number of available cores, each
 copy was assigned to a single L2 cache using mysubmit.pl script.
 See the flags description file for mysubmit.pl details.

Operating System Notes

 taskset was used to bind processes to cores except for 436.cactusADM peak

 'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stacksize to unlimited
 OMP_NUM_THREADS set to number of cores.
 KMP_STACKSIZE set to 64M
 KMP_AFFINITY set to physical,0

Platform Notes

 BIOS configuration:
 High Bandwidth option = Enable

General Notes

 All benchmarks compiled in 64-bit mode except 437.leslie3d, 450.soplex
 and 482.sphinx3, at peak, are compiled in 32-bit mode
