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"
 Transparent Huge Pages enabled with:
 echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
 Filesystem page cache cleared with:
 echo 1 >       /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
 runspec command invoked through numactl i.e.:
 numactl --localalloc runspec <etc>
 Drive Write Cache set to Enabled in HP Array Configuration Utility,
 CLI version
 Accelerator Ratio for Reads/Writes set to = 100% Read / 0% Write
 in HP Array Configuration Utility, CLI version

Platform Notes

 BIOS Configuration:
  HP Power Regulator set to HP Static High Performance Mode
  HP Power Profile set to Custom
  Energy/Performance Bias set to Maximum Performance
