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
 The libhugetlbfs libraries were installed using the
 installation rpms that came with the distribution.

 Set vm/nr_hugepages=5400 in /etc/sysctl.conf
 mount -t hugetlbfs nodev /mnt/hugepages

Platform Notes

BIOS configuration:
  Power Regulator set to Static High Performance Mode

General Notes
