Submit Notes
The config file option 'submit' was used. numactl was used to bind copies to the cores
Operating System Notes
Hugepages was enabled with the following:
'nodev /mnt/hugepages hugetlbfs defaults 0 0' added to /etc/fstab
echo 10800 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
export HUGETLB_MORECORE=yes
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libhugetlbfs.so
Platform Notes
Turbo Mode enabled in BIOS Turbo Boost set to Traditional in BIOS Power C-states enabled in BIOS Demand Scrub disabled in BIOS
General Notes
'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stacksize to unlimited prior to run
