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"

Environment Variables Notes

Environment variables set by runcpu before the start of the run:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH =
     "/mnt/ramdisk/cpu2017-1.1.8-ic2021.1/lib/intel64:/mnt/ramdisk/cpu2017-1.
     1.8-ic2021.1/je5.0.1-64"
MALLOC_CONF = "retain:true"

General Notes

 Binaries compiled on a system with 1x Intel Core i9-7980XE CPU + 64GB RAM
 memory using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.1
 Transparent Huge Pages enabled by default
 Prior to runcpu invocation
 Filesystem page cache synced and cleared with:
 sync; echo 3>       /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
 runcpu command invoked through numactl i.e.:
 numactl --interleave=all runcpu <etc>
 jemalloc, a general purpose malloc implementation
 built with the RedHat Enterprise 7.5, and the system compiler gcc 4.8.5
 sources available from jemalloc.net or https://github.com/jemalloc/jemalloc/releases
