Compiler Invocation Notes


 Sun Studio compiler patches are available at
 http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/downloads/patches/ss12_patches.jsp
 The tested configuration included patch 124867-02, 124861-04, 124863-01

Operating System Notes


 The Sun Blade 6000 was tested with 10x T6320 Modules,
 each containing 1x UltraSPARC T2 chip.

 The Sun Blade T6320 is supported by Solaris 10 8/07
 plus a factory-installed set of patches.  As tested, the
 system used a 15 January 2008 pre-release build of the
 patch set.

 OS and test harness settings include:

 - On each T6320 Module:
     - The "webconsole" service was turned off using
          svcadm disable webconsole
     - /etc/system settings:
          autoup = 600
          set bufhwm_pct=1
          set segmap_percent=2
          set tsb_rss_factor=128
          tune_t_fsflushr = 10
     - Process settings:
          ulimit -s 131072

 - The "submit" feature was used with a perl procedure, which did
   arithmetic to derive processor numbers from the SPEC copy number

 Additional details about the above points be found in the "Platform
 Settings" section of the associated flags file.
