Submit Notes

 The numactl mechanism was used to bind copies to processors. The config file option 'submit'
 was used to generate numactl commands to bind each copy to a specific processor.
 For details, please see the config file.

Operating System Notes

 Stack size set to unlimited using "ulimit -s unlimited"
 Transparent Huge Pages enabled with:
  echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
 Filesystem page cache cleared with:
  echo 1 >       /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
 runspec command invoked through numactl i.e.:
  numactl --interleave=all runspec <etc>
