Operating System Notes
'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stacksize to unlimited prior to run
Platform Notes
BIOS Settings: Power Management = Maximum Performance (Default = Active Power Controller) Data Reuse = Disabled (Default = Enabled)
General Notes
OMP_NUM_THREADS set to number of cores KMP_AFFINITY set to granularity=fine,scatter Binaries were compiled on SLES 10 with Binutils 2.18.50.0.7.20080502 The Dell PowerEdge R710 and the Bull NovaScale R460 F2 models are electronically equivalent. The results have been measured on a Dell PowerEdge R710 model.
