'ulimit -l 2097152' was used to set environment locked pages in memory limit
runcpu command invoked through numactl i.e.:
numactl --interleave=all runcpu <etc>
To limit dirty cache to 8% of memory, 'sysctl -w vm.dirty_ratio=8' run as root.
To limit swap usage to minimum necessary, 'sysctl -w vm.swappiness=1' run as root.
To free node-local memory and avoid remote memory usage,
'sysctl -w vm.zone_reclaim_mode=1' run as root.
To clear filesystem caches, 'sync; sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=3' run as root.
To disable address space layout randomization (ASLR) to reduce run-to-run
variability, 'sysctl -w kernel.randomize_va_space=0' run as root.
To enable Transparent Hugepages (THP) for all allocations,
'echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled' and
'echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag' run as root.
To always enable THP for peak runs of:
603.bwaves_s, 607.cactuBSSN_s, 619.lbm_s, 627.cam4_s, 628.pop2_s, 638.imagick_s, 644.nab_s, 649.fotonik3d_s:
'echo madvise > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled; echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag'
run as root.
To disable THP for peak runs of 621.wrf_s:
'echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled; echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag'
run as root.
To enable THP only on request for peak runs of 654.roms_s:
'echo madvise > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled; echo madvise > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag'
run as root.
