General Notes
All benchmarks compiled in 32-bit mode except 401.bzip2 and 456.hmmer, for peak, are compiled in 64-bit mode Hardware Sector Prefetch Enabled and Adjacent Sector Prefetch Disabled OMP_NUM_THREADS set to number of cores KMP_AFFINITY set to physical,0 KMP_STACKSIZE set to 64M taskset utility used to bind CPU(s) to processes This result is measured on an IBM System x3500 Server. Note that the IBM System x3500 and IBM System x3400 are electrically equivalent.
