Operating System Notes

 'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set the stacksize to unlimited prior to run
 Hugepages was enabled with the following:
   'nodev   /mnt/hugepages   hugetlbfs  defaults   0 0' added to /etc/fstab
    echo 900 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
    export HUGETLB_MORECORE=yes
    export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libhugetlbfs.so
