Hi Hui, Can you give specifics of what you're trying to achieve? Depending on what you'd like to do, it may make most sense to modify the benchmark that you're running to explicitly call the command. On the other hand, it may be simple to add the call you'd like to the simulator and parameterize it to be called if you pass a command line parameter.
