Submit Notes

The config file option 'submit' was used.
 numactl was used to bind copies to the cores

Operating System Notes

 'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stack size to unlimited prior to run
 Hugepages was enabled with the following:
 nodev   /mnt/hugepages   hugetlbfs  defaults   0 0' added to /etc/fstab
 echo 3600 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
 export HUGETLB_MORECORE=yes

Platform Notes

 Fan speed set to Full Speed in BIOS Setup.
