Operating System Notes
'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stacksize to unlimited prior to run
Platform Notes
BIOS Settings: Power Management = Maximum Performance (Default = Active Power Controller)
General Notes
Binaries were compiled on SLES 10 with Binutils 2.18.50.0.7.20080502 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.
