Submit Notes

 The numactl mechanism was used to bind copies to processors. The config file option 'submit'
 was used to generate numactl 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"

General Notes

Environment variables set by runcpu before the start of the run:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH = "/root/cpu2017/lib/ia32:/root/cpu2017/lib/intel64:/root/cpu2017/je5.0.1-32:/root/cpu2017/je5.0.1-64"

 Binaries compiled on a system with 1x Intel Core i7-4790 CPU + 32GB RAM
