Really, bootup is quite long? It's pretty fast on Alpha and I wouldn't expect that much more to be going on in x86. There are a lot of delay loops during bootup that slow things down. Have you elided all of those? Nate _______________________________________________ m5-dev mailing list m5-dev@m5sim.org http://m5sim.org/mailman/listinfo/m5-dev
