Submit Notes
The config file option 'submit' was used. numactl was used to bind copies to the cores
Operating System Notes
'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stacksize to unlimited prior to run
Platform Notes
vm.zone_reclaim_mode = 1 in /etc/sysctl.conf file BIOS Settings: Power Management = Maximum Performance (Default = Active Power Controller)
General Notes
The Dell PowerEdge R910 and the Bull NovaScale R480 F2 models are electronically equivalent. The results have been measured on a Dell PowerEdge R910 model.
