Submit Notes

The config file option 'submit' was used.
'numactl' was used to bind copies to the cores.
See the configuration file for details.

Operating System Notes

'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set environment stack size
'ulimit -l 2097152'  was used to set environment locked pages in memory limit

Set transparent_hugepage=never as a boot parameter in /boot/grub/menu.lst
Set kernel/randomize_va_space=0 in /etc/sysctl.conf
cpuspeed stop was used to set the CPU frequency to its maximum.

Set vm/nr_hugepages=4000 in /etc/sysctl.conf
mount -t hugetlbfs nodev /mnt/hugepages

General Notes

Environment variables set by runspec before the start of the run:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH = "/root/work/cpu2006v1.2/amd1104-speed-libs-revA/32:/root/work/cpu2006v1.2/amd1104-speed-libs-revA/64"
O64_OMP_AFFINITY_MAP = "0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23"
O64_OMP_SPIN_COUNT = "800000"
O64_OMP_SPIN_USER_LOCK = "true"

The x86 Open64 Compiler Suite is only available from (and supported by) AMD at
