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 stacksize to unlimited prior to run
Hugepages was enabled with the following:
   'nodev   /mnt/hugepages   hugetlbfs  defaults   0 0' added to /etc/fstab
    echo 10800 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
    export HUGETLB_MORECORE=yes
    export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libhugetlbfs.so

Platform Notes

Load Default BIOS Settings and then change the following
  Hardware Prefetch Enabled
  Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch Enabled
  L1 Data Prefetch Enabled
  Data Reuse Optimization Disabled

General Notes

Binaries were compiled on RHEL5.5 with Binutils binutils-2.17.50.0.6-14.el5

This result is measured on Sun Fire X4170 M2 server.
Note that the Sun Fire X4170 M2 server and Sun Fire X4270 M2 server are
electrically equivalent.
