General Notes

All benchmarks compiled in 64-bit mode except 437.leslie3d,
450.soplex, 470.lbm and 482.sphinx3, for peak, are
compiled in 32-bit mode
 The NEC Express5800/120Rh-1(Intel Xeon Prosessor X5450),
 the NEC Express5800/120Rj-2(Intel Xeon Prosessor X5450),
 the Bull NovaScale R440 E1 (Intel Xeon X5450,3.00GHz) and
 the Bull NovaScale R460 E1 (Intel Xeon X5450,3.00GHz) models are electronically equivalent.
 The results have been measured on a NEC Express5800/120Rj-2(Intel Xeon Prosessor X5450) model.
