Operating System Notes

 'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stacksize to unlimited prior to run
 '/usr/bin/taskset' used to bind processes to CPUs
   except for 436.cactusADM at peak.
  OMP_NUM_THREADS set to number of cores

General Notes

All benchmarks compiled in 64-bit mode except 437.leslie3d,
450.soplex, 470.lbm and 482.sphinx3, for peak, are
compiled in 32-bit mode
