Could you post the command you used to run gem5 to the list? Also, the output 
from the screen would be helpful, both the gem5 output and what you see when 
you try telnet.

Subject: [gem5-users] FW: Help with more than 4 CPUs FS


Hi Nilay

1) I tried increasing the memory in FSConfig to 2047MB
2) I tried to use timing simple CPU instead of detailed
3) I tried to decrease the number of objects (number of L2 Cache banks, number 
of directories) hoping that the simulation consumes less resources

I am running the simulation on my personal laptop with 3GB ram (the simulation 
never takes more than 600MB of the 2047MB) and 2.4GHz core2 duo
the simulation is run for Alpha ISA with BigTsunami and the patched PAL code 
existing on PARSEC benchmark web page

What am I missing ...the simulation never boots for 8+ processors even after 8 
hours of running
please help, this is really critical for me

Sincerely,
Mostafa
