Abstract

The nominal goal for memory consumption by SPEC CPU2006 benchmarks is up to about 900 MB when compiled with 32-bit pointers. The 900 MB maxium was chosen so that a system with 1GB will have about 100MB available for the operating system and overhead processes. By comparison, the goal for SPEC CPU2000 was 200MB [1].
