Sun Studio 12 Update 1 was used, plus patch 119963-17 Sun Studio compiler patches are available at http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/downloads/patches/ss12u1_patches.jsp
Processes were assigned to specific processors using 'pbind' commands. The config file option 'submit' was used, along with a list of processors in the 'BIND' variable, to generate the pbind commands. (For details, please see the config file.)
ulimit -s 131072 was used to allow the stack to grow
up to 131072 KB (aka 128 MB). Note that saying "131072"
is preferable to "unlimited", because there is a tradeoff
between space for the stack vs. space for the heap.
System Tunables (/etc/system parameters):
tune_t_fsflushr=10
Controls how many seconds elapse between runs of the
page flush daemon, fsflush.
autoup=600
Causes pages older than the listed number of seconds to
be written by fsflush.
zfs:zfs_arc_max = 0x10000000
Control the amount of memory used by ZFS for caching
Other System Settings:
The webconsole service was turned off using
svcadm disable webconsole
The system had 32 GB of swap space
SPEC CPU2006 used 1 disk, with zfs gzip compression.
Memory is 8-way interleaved by filling all slots with the same capacity DIMMs. This result is measured on a Sun SPARC Enterprise M4000 Server. The Sun SPARC Enterprise M4000 and the Fujitsu SPARC Enterprise M4000 are electrically equivalent.
Environment variables set by runspec before the start of the run: OMP_NUM_THREADS = "32" SUNW_MP_PROCBIND = "true" SUNW_MP_THR_IDLE = "SPIN" (Although these variables were set prior to the run they did not affect performance, since the benchmarks were compiled in serial mode.)
