Submit Notes

The config file option 'submit' was used to invoke the command numactl
to bind copies to the cores.  (For details, please see the config file.)

Operating System Notes

'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stacksize to unlimited prior to run

Platform Notes

Load Default BIOS Settings and then change the following
  C-State Disabled
  Data Reuse Optimization Disabled
  Hardware Prefetch Enabled
  Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch Enabled
  L1 Data Prefetch Enabled

General Notes

This result is measured on a Sun Fire X4170 M2
server.  The Sun Fire X4170 M2 and the Sun Fire
X4270 M2 are electronically equivalent.
