Submit Notes

 The config file option 'submit' was used
 to assign benchmark copy to specific kernel thread using
 the "bindprocessor" command (see flags file for details).

Operating System Notes

 all ulimits set to unlimited.
 25600 16M large pages defined with vmo command

General Notes

Environment variables set by runspec before the start of the run:
MALLOCOPTIONS = "pool"
MEMORY_AFFINITY = "MCM"
XLFRTEOPTS = "intrinthds=1"

 See the flags file for details on settings.
