 (End of data from sysinfo program)
 Regarding the sysinfo display about the memory installed, the correct amount of
 memory is 1 TB and the dmidecode description should have one line reading as:
    64x HP 712383-081 16 GB 1333 MHz 2 rank

General Notes

Environment variables set by runspec before the start of the run:
KMP_AFFINITY = "granularity=fine,compact,1,0"
LD_LIBRARY_PATH = "/cpu2006/libs/32:/cpu2006/libs/64:/cpu2006/sh"
OMP_NUM_THREADS = "40"

 Binaries compiled on a system with 1x Core i7-860 CPU + 8GB
 memory using RedHat EL 6.4

Assuming that the memory populations rules found in the DL580 Gen8
QuickSpecs are followed, HP supports memory running at 1333 MHz on
the E7-4850 v2, E7-4830 v2, E7-4820 v2, or E7-4809 v2 processors with
any BIOS prior to the 1.03_06-27-2014 ROM. Any BIOS that is the
1.03_06-27-2014 ROM or later, does not support the memory running at
1333 MHz due to a change in the Intel MRC (Memory Reference Code).
