Submit Notes

 The taskset mechanism was used to bind copies to processors. The config file option 'submit'
 was used to generate taskset commands to bind each copy to a specific processor.
 For details, please see the config file.

Operating System Notes

 Stack size set to unlimited using "ulimit -s unlimited"
 Transparent Huge Pages enabled with:
  echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/redhat_transparent_hugepage/enabled
 Filesystem page cache cleared with:
  echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
 runspec command invoked through numactl i.e.:
  numactl --interleave=all runspec <etc>

Platform Notes

 BIOS Configuration:
   HP Power Profile set to Maximum Performance
   Memory Power Savings Mode set to Maximum Performance
   Thermal Configuration set so Maximum Cooling
   Processor Power and Utilization Monitoring set to Disabled
