The patches are an the review board but they're not committed yet. My hope is that the pickled or shelved python output will become the default with a utility to turn it into a more user readable text and python that can be used to read it for machine reasons.

We have a lot of internal code that uses the current Cache Profiler that I'll need to change.

Is now the time to convert Ruby stats to gem5 stats, since gem5 stats are now python objects and can potentially be outputted in any format. The last half of that statement may be a streach, so please correct me if that's untrue. As you know, I've been relucant to convert Ruby stats to gem5 stats because many Ruby stats are useful in the debugging process, and Ruby's more condense format is much more readable. Meanwhile, the default gem5 stats format is optimized for data extraction. If we could use the new python support to generate an output file that looks a lot like the current ruby.stats file, then now maybe a good time to switch. This is probably a better topic for a separate thread, but I wanted to mention that thought before I forgot. > > - Brad Beckmann > > On July 5, 2012, 8:15 a.m., Nilay Vaish wrote: > >> ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
