Operating System Notes

 'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set environment stack size
 'ulimit -l 2457600'  was used to set environment locked pages in memory limit
 The libhugetlbfs libraries were installed using the
 installation rpms that came with the distribution.
 PGI_HUGE_PAGES set to 450.
 Total number of huge pages available is 5400.
 NCPUS set to number of cores

Platform Notes

BIOS configuration:
  Power Regulator set to Static High Performance Mode

General Notes

Environment variables set by runspec before the start of the run:
HUGETLB_MORECORE = "yes"
NCPUS = "12"
