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

 SPEC files placed in /spec2006, with /spec2006
 mounted as tmpfs with mpol=interleave, size=480G
 Stack size set to unlimited using "ulimit -s unlimited"
 Kernel booted with option clocksource=jiffies (allows to count time with interrupts at
 1 jiffy period instead using HPET counters)
 Bios set with Max_Numa_Nodes_per_module to 4
 Bios set with Memory hemisphere mode
