Submit Notes

The config file option 'submit' was used.
'numactl' was used to bind copies to the cores.
See the configuration file for details.

Operating System Notes

'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set environment stack size
'ulimit -l 2097152'  was used to set environment locked pages in memory limit

Set transparent_hugepage=never as a boot parameter in /boot/grub/menu.lst

Set vm/nr_hugepages=43008 in /etc/sysctl.conf
mount -t hugetlbfs nodev /mnt/hugepages

 Additional information from dmidecode:

    Warning: Use caution when you interpret this section. The 'dmidecode' program
    reads system data which is "intended to allow hardware to be accurately
    determined", but the intent may not be met, as there are frequent changes to
    hardware, firmware, and the "DMTF SMBIOS" standard.

   BIOS American Megatrends Inc. -[AYE167AUS-1.14]- 10/14/2013
   Memory:
    32x Samsung M393B2G70BH0- 16 GB 2 rank 1866 MHz

 (End of data from sysinfo program)
The dmidecode output of the IBM x3755 M3 SUT shows only the label speed of the
memory DIMM (i.e. 1866 MHz in this case). The actual configured speed (i.e. 1600 MHz
in this case) is not shown in the dmidecode output. The actual configured speed
can be confirmed by entering the UEFI user menu during the system boot.
