General Notes

 All benchmarks compiled in 64-bit mode except 437.leslie3d, 450.soplex,
 470.lbm and 482.sphinx3, at peak, are compiled in 32-bit mode
 Hardware Sector Prefetch Enabled and Adjacent Sector Prefetch Disabled
 OMP_NUM_THREADS set to number of cores
 KMP_AFFINITY set to physical,0
 KMP_STACKSIZE set to 64M
 taskset utility used to bind CPU(s) to processes
 This result is measured on an IBM System x 3500 Server. Note
 that the IBM Systen x 3500 and IBM System x 3400 are electrically
 equivalent.
