The correct URL for instructions on processor binding and 64-KB 
paging for TIEGCM/TIMEGCM jobs on bluefire is:

>Hi tgcmgroup:
>
>Please add "processor binding" to your TIEGCM/TIMEGCM jobs 
>running on the IBM/AIX bluefire machine. See attached instructions.
>Doing this can improve model performance by as much as 20%, 
>varying with model resolution, and the number of nodes and 
>processors used. It is important that we do this for more 
>efficient use of the machine.
>
>Instructions are also available at:
>http://www/hao.ucar.edu/modeling/tgcm/doc/add_proc_binding.html
>(or click on "Add Processor Binding" in the "What's New" section
>of the TGCM website).
