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 28800 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
  export HUGETLB_MORECORE=yes
  export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libhugetlbfs.so
