Submit Notes
The config file option 'submit' was used. numactl was used to bind copies to the cores
Operating System Notes
Stack size set to unlimited using "ulimit -s unlimited" Transparent Huge Pages enabled with: echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/redhat_transparent_hugepage/enabled Filesystem page cache cleared with: echo 1> /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches runspec command invoked through numactl i.e.: numactl --interleave=all runspec <etc>
Platform Notes
BIOS configuration: HP Power Profile set to Maximum Performance Thermal Configuration set to Increased Cooling Data Reuse set to Disabled
General Notes
Environment variables set by runspec before the start of the run: LD_LIBRARY_PATH = "/cpu2006/smartheap:/cpu2006/ic12.1-libs/ia32/:/cpu2006/ic12.1-libs/intel64"
