  • Environment variables that can be set before the run: 
    XLFRTEOPTS=intrinthrds=1 : Causes the Fortran runtime to only use a single thread.
  • To reserve 16000 huge pages out of the physical memory pool, issue the following command, 
    echo 16000 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
    or 
    echo 16000 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_overcommit_hugepages
    to allocate from the dynamic hugepage pool. This can be done in both Red Hat and Suse Enterprise, since both distributions implements Transparent Huge Pages (THP). THP is an abstraction layer that automates most aspects of creating, managing and using huge pages, and can currently only map anonymous memory regions such as heap and stack space.
