Submit Notes

The config file option 'submit' was used.
 numactl was used to bind copies to the cores

Operating System Notes

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

Platform Notes

 BIOS Settings:
 Power Management = Maximum Performance (Default = Active Power Controller)

General Notes

 The Dell PowerEdge T310 and the Bull NovaScale T820 F2 models are electronically equivalent.
 This result was measured on a Dell PowerEdge T310.
