Hi all:
 
I am so much wondering if I have to add much more DRAM to use gem5.opt.
 
My host workstation has:
16 GB DRAM
12 SMT cpu cores
 
The OS (64 bit RHEL 6) killed the gem5.opt which had been running "facesim" 
(parsec, simmedium) for 2 days because the gem5.opt simulator used up even the 
swap space.
 
I just launched a SINGLE gem5.opt simulator with this configuration:
./build/X86_MESI_CMP_directory/gem5.opt \
configs/example/ruby_fs.py -n 4 \
--cpu-type=detailed \
--mem-size=512MB \
--kernel=x86_64-vmlinux-2.6.22.9.smp \
--script=parsec-run-facesim.rcS \
--caches \
--l1d_size=32kB \
--l1i_size=32kB \
--l1d_assoc=8 \
--l1i_assoc=8 \
--cacheline_size=64 \
--l2cache \
--l2_size=1MB \
--l2_assoc=16 \
--cacheline_size=64
 
 
Do I just need to add much more DRAM?
In other words, is it a normal symptom?
 

Best regards,
Suk chan Kang
