Operating System Notes


Processes were bound to cores using "submit" and "pbind".
The SPEC toolset was bound to processor 0.

These shell commands request use of local 4MB pages:
      export LD_PRELOAD=madv.so.1:mpss.so.1
      export MPSSHEAP=4MB
      export MPSSSTACK=4MB
      export MADV=access_lwp
'access_lwp' means that the next light weight
process to touch the specified address range
will access it the most heavily.

ulimit -s 131072 was used to limit the space
consumed by the stack (and therefore make more
space available to the heap).

 /etc/system parameters
    autoup=300
       Causes pages older than the listed number of seconds to
       be written by fsflush.
    bufhwm=3000
       Memory byte limit for caching I/O buffers
    segmap_percent=1
       Set maximum percent memory for file system cache
    tune_t_fsflushr=3
       Controls how many seconds elapse between runs of the
       page flush daemon, fsflush.

 The "webconsole" service was turned off using
     svcadm disable webconsole

Platform Notes


Disk notes: The SPEC CPU tests use a 400 GB partition
created from 3x Sun StorageTek 6140 stripe sets.  The
partition was created in 3 steps: 1. Each 6140 stripe
set (RAID 0) is based on 8x 146 GB 15,000 RPM Seagate
ST3146954FC FC-AL disks.  2. Solaris views these as 3
logical units (LUNs) which are striped together (RAID
0) to make a 3 TB volume using Solaris Volume Manager
(SVM).  3. Lastly, SVM is then used to create one 400
GB soft partition for use by the CPU2006 output_root.

"CMU" = CPU/Memory Unit; each holds 2 or 4 CPU chips.

Memory is 8-way interleaved by filling all slots with
the same capacity DIMMs.

This result was measured using a Sun SPARC Enterprise
M8000 Server.  Note that the Fujitsu SPARC Enterprise
M8000 and Sun SPARC Enterprise M8000 are electrically
equivalent.
