Operating System Notes

'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stacksize to unlimited prior to run

Platform Notes

Load Default BIOS Settings and then change the following
  Data Reuse Optimization Enabled
  Intel Hyperthreading Options Disabled

General Notes

 OMP_NUM_THREADS set to number of cores
 KMP_AFFINITY set to granularity=fine,scatter
 KMP_STACKSIZE set to 200M
 Though binaries were linked with hugepages, this result did not use hugepages.
Binaries were compiled on RHEL5.5 with Binutils binutils-2.17.50.0.6-14.el5
