Submit Notes
The config file option 'submit' was used. A submit.pl script was used to distribute benchmark copies across the 2 blades and to pin processes to cores using dplace. Each blade runs a separate instance of the operating system.
General Notes
Adjacent cache line prefetch enabled System has 2 blades with 2 chips/blade.
