Compiler Invocation Notes

OMP_NUM_THREADS set to number of cores
KMP_STACK_SIZE set to 64M
KMP_AFFINITY set to physical,0

Operating System Notes

'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stacksize to unlimited prior to run
'/usr/bin/taskset' used to bind processes to CPUs

Platform Notes

BIOS Settings:
Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch = Disabled (default Enabled)
