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

 BIOS Configuration:
   HP Power Profile set to Custom
   HP Power Regulator to HP Static High Performance Mode

 Additional information from dmidecode:

    Warning: Use caution when you interpret this section. The 'dmidecode' program
    reads system data which is "intended to allow hardware to be accurately
    determined", but the intent may not be met, as there are frequent changes to
    hardware, firmware, and the "DMTF SMBIOS" standard.

   BIOS HP U17 05/16/2016
   Memory:
    64x UNKNOWN NOT AVAILABLE
    32x UNKNOWN NOT AVAILABLE 16 GB 2 rank 2400 MHz, configured at 1333 MHz

 (End of data from sysinfo program)
 Regarding the sysinfo display about the memory installed, the correct amount of
 memory is 512 GB and the dmidecode description should have one line reading as:
 32x UNKNOWN NOT AVAILABLE 16 GB 2 rank 2400 MHz, configured at 1333 MHz
