Submit Notes
The config file option 'submit' was used. numactl was used to bind copies to the cores
Operating System Notes
'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stacksize to unlimited prior to run
Hugepages was enabled with the following:
'nodev /mnt/hugepages hugetlbfs defaults 0 0' added to /etc/fstab
echo 10800 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
export HUGETLB_MORECORE=yes
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libhugetlbfs.so
Platform Notes
Load Default BIOS Settings and then change the following Data Reuse Optimization Disabled Hardware Prefetch Enabled Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch Enabled L1 Data Prefetch Enabled
General Notes
Binaries were compiled on RHEL5.5 with Binutils binutils-2.17.50.0.6-14.el5
