Submit Notes

 The numactl mechanism was used to bind copies to processors. The config file option 'submit'
 was used to generate numactl commands to bind each copy to a specific processor.
 For details, please see the config file.

Operating System Notes

 Stack size set to unlimited using "ulimit -s unlimited"

Environment Variables Notes

Environment variables set by runcpu before the start of the run:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH = "/home/cpu2026.902/lib"
MALLOC_CONF = "retain:true"

General Notes

 Binaries compiled on a system with 2x Intel Xeon Platinum 8280M CPU + 384GB RAM
 memory using CentOS Stream 9.
 Transparent Huge Pages enabled by default
 Prior to runcpu invocation
 Filesystem page cache synced and cleared with:
 sync; echo 3>       /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
 runcpu command invoked through numactl i.e.:
 numactl --interleave=all runcpu <etc>
 jemalloc, a general purpose malloc implementation
 built with the CentOS Stream 9, and the system compiler gcc 11.5.0
 sources available from jemalloc.net or https://github.com/jemalloc/jemalloc/releases

Platform Notes


 BIOS Settings:
 Sub NUMA clustering set to Enabled
 Hardware prefetcher set to Enabled
 Adjacent cache line prefetcher set to Disabled
 Enhanced CPU Performance set to Auto
