Operating System Notes
'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stacksize to unlimited prior to run OMP_NUM_THREADS set to number of cores KMP_AFFINITY set to physical,0 KMP_STACKSIZE set to 64M
Platform Notes
BIOS configuration: Power Regulator set to Static High Performance Mode
General Notes
The ProLiant BL2x220c G5 is comprised of two independent server nodes in a single chassis. Only one of the server nodes was used for this benchmark; the other server node was idle during the benchmark. The active server node contained all of the CPUs and memory described in this disclosure.
