RunningSPEC

First off: these steps can only be copleted successfully by David Groep, since he owns the licenses needed for ICC and SmartHeap. There is only one Intel license (commercial) available for doing this, and these is also only a single SmartHeap license (on order).

Prepare the machine

• Install a machine with CentOS5 x86-64, e.g. via quattor or manually. Make sure it's a physical machine, and that it will be dedicated to the benchmark running for at least as long as you need it. Make sure numactl and taskset (from util-linux) are available on the machine.
• As root, install the Intel compiler suite (version 11.0) from [[1]]. Install both the i386 and the x86_64 varieties.
• As root, run the script [[2]] to set the installation destination into the generated scripts.
• As root, install the license file to /opt/intel/licenses/icc-davidg.lic and chown it to davidg:users, mode 0600.
• Add to your profile:

PATH=$PATH:/opt/intel/Compiler/11.0/081/bin/intel64/
export PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/intel/Compiler/11.0/081/lib/intel64
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
