Submit Notes
The config file option 'submit' was used. numactl was used to bind copies to the cores
Operating System Notes
'nodev /mnt/hugepages hugetlbfs defaults 0 0' added to /etc/fstab 'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stacksize to unlimited prior to run echo 10800 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages export HUGETLB_MORECORE=yes export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libhugetlbfs.so
Platform Notes
BIOS configuration: HP Power Profile set to Maximum Performance Thermal Configuration set to Increased Cooling Data Reuse set to Disabled
General Notes
Binaries were compiled on RHEL5.5 with Binutils binutils-2.17.50.0.6-14.el5
