Compiler Invocation Notes
Oracle Solaris Studio 12.2 is distributed with mandatory OS patches 118683-05 119963-20 120753-08 Oracle Solaris Studio 12.2 and patches are available at http://oracle.com/goto/solarisstudio
Submit Notes
Processes were bound to cores using "submit" and "pbind". The config file option 'submit' was used in order to accomplish this.
Operating System Notes
ulimit -s 131072 was used to limit the space
consumed by the stack (and therefore make more
space available to the heap).
/etc/system parameters
autoup=600
Causes pages older than the listed number of seconds to
be written by fsflush.
tune_t_fsflushr=10
Controls how many seconds elapse between runs of the
page flush daemon, fsflush.
lpg_alloc_prefer=1
Indicates that extra effort should be taken to ensure
that pages are created in the nearby lgroup (NUMA location).
tsb_rss_factor=128
Suggests that the the size of the TSB (Translation
Storage Buffer) may be increased if it is more than
25% (128/512) full. Doing so may reduce TSB traps,
at the cost of additional kernel memory.
zfs:zfs_arc_max=0x10000000
zfs:zfs_arc_min=0x10000000
Limits the consumption of memory by the zfs file system
cache to 256 MB. (The arc_max sets the maximum cache
size; arc_min sets the minimum.)
zfs:zfs_prefetch_disable = 1
Indicates that prefetching is not desired. This setting
may be desirable when the file system cache is small.
USB devices were turned off with ILOM command
set /SYS/MB/USB component_state=disabled
The "webconsole" service was turned off using
svcadm disable webconsole
The system had 437 GB of swap space.
