Submit Notes

 The config file option 'submit' was used.
numactl was used to bind copies to the cores

Platform Notes

 BIOS configuration:
  HP Power Profile set to Maximum Performance
  Thermal Configuration set to Increased Cooling

General Notes

Environment variables set by runspec before the start of the run:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH = "/cpu2006/smartheap:/cpu2006/ic12.1-libs/ia32/:/cpu2006/ic12.1-libs/intel64"

 Stack size set to unlimited using "ulimit -s unlimited"
 Transparent Huge Pages disabled with:
 echo never  > /sys/kernel/mm/redhat_transparent_hugepage/enabled
 runspec command invoked through numactl i.e.:
 numactl --interleave=all runspec <etc>
