Submit Notes

The config file option 'submit' was used.
'numactl' was used to bind copies to the cores.
See the configuration file for details.

Operating System Notes

'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set environment stack size
'ulimit -l 2097152'  was used to set environment locked pages in memory limit
Set vm/nr_hugepages=14336 in /etc/sysctl.conf
mount -t hugetlbfs nodev /mnt/hugepages

Platform Notes

   Default BIOS (BIOS Revision : 2.0.3.18) settings used except:
   DCT Unganged Mode set to "Enable"

General Notes

Environment variables set by runspec before the start of the run:
HUGETLB_LIMIT = "896"
LD_LIBRARY_PATH = "/data1/SPECcpu2006v1.1-pegasus215/amd0905is-libs/64:/data1/SPECcpu2006v1.1-pegasus215/amd0905is-libs/32"
NCPUS = "4"
PGI_HUGE_PAGES = "896"
The NFS server used was a Sun Fire X2100 M2 containing 1 x 80 GB 10 K RPM SATA disks.
Connections to the clients were via gigabit ethernet.
