runcpu command invoked through numactl i.e.:
numactl --interleave=all runcpu <etc>
To limit dirty cache to 8% of memory, 'sysctl -w vm.dirty_ratio=8' run as root.
To limit swap usage to minimum necessary, 'sysctl -w vm.swappiness=1' run as root.
To free node-local memory and avoid remote memory usage,
'sysctl -w vm.zone_reclaim_mode=1' run as root.
To clear filesystem caches, 'sync; sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=3' run as root.
To disable address space layout randomization (ASLR) to reduce run-to-run
variability, 'sysctl -w kernel.randomize_va_space=0' run as root.
OS set to performance mode via cpupower frequency-set -g performance
To enable Transparent Hugepages (THP) for all allocations,
'echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled' and
'echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag' run as root.
