Submit Notes

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

Operating System Notes

 I/O scheduler for the device holding the filesystem set to "noop"
 SPEC files placed in /dev/shm/cpu2006 with /dev/shm
 mounted as tmpfs with mpol=interleave, size=500G
 'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stacksize to unlimited prior to run
 Hugepages were not configured on the system

Platform Notes
