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 SPEC files placed in /dev/shm/cpu2006 with /dev/shm mounted as tempfs with mpol=interleave The mpol=interleave option sets the NUMA memory allocation policy for all files to allocate from each node in turn.
Platform Notes
Power Regulator set to HP Static High Performance Mode
