Marconi-KNL: decrease of available job memory (2)

Dear users,
with specific reference to the news about “decrease of available job memory for Marconi KNL”, we inform you that the limits indicated (90/105 GB for CACHE/FLAT partition), sometimes do not correspond to actual free memory, that results in possibly swapping memory and a strong decrease of performance.
For this reason, we strongly suggest you not to exceed the following values for memory requirement on KNL:

86 GB (CACHE partition)
101 GB (FLAT partition)

Regards,
