Submit Notes

The config file option 'submit' was used.
'numactl' was used to bind copies to the cores.
See the configuration file for details.

Operating System Notes

'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set environment stack size
'ulimit -l 2097152'  was used to set environment locked pages in memory limit

Set transparent_hugepage=never as a boot parameter in /boot/grub/menu.lst

Set vm/nr_hugepages=57344 in /etc/sysctl.conf
mount -t hugetlbfs nodev /mnt/hugepages

The sysinfo-rev6818 used in this submission has an issue parsing the dmidecode
output with "Memory Device Mapped Address" lines. The additional "32x 16 GB"
in the sysinfo section above are not actual memory DIMMs and can be ignored.
