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

 Stack size set to unlimited using "ulimit -s unlimited"
 Transparent Huge Pages enabled with:
  echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
 Filesystem page cache cleared with:
  echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
 runspec command invoked through numactl i.e.:
  numactl --interleave=all runspec <etc>

Platform Notes

 (End of data from sysinfo program)
Regarding the sysinfo display about the memory installed, the correct amount of
memory is 256 GB and the dmidecode description should have two lines reading as:
	7x HP NOT AVAILABLE 32 GB 2133 MHz 4 rank
	1x UNKNOWN NOT AVAILABLE 32 GB 2133 MHz 4 rank
