IBM System x3690 X5 (Intel Xeon E7-2870, 2.40
GHz)

SPECfp®_rate2006 = NC

SPECfp_rate_base2006 = NC

CPU2006 license:	11	Test date:	Feb-2012
Test sponsor:	IBM Corporation	Hardware Availability:	May-2011
Tested by:	IBM Corporation	Software Availability:	Feb-2012

SPEC has determined that this result is not in compliance with the SPEC
CPU2006 run and reporting rules. Specifically, the submitter reported
that the result does not meet the 3 month availability requirement in
the SPEC CPU2006 run rules, because the tested processor was not supported
on this platform within three months of publication. Results using the
supported processor can be found at http://www.spec.org/cpu2006/results/res2012q3/cpu2006-20120716-23705.html

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.
