Hello Ali thanks for your answer, what is the difference between "commit.COM:count # Number of instructions committed" and "num_insts # Number of instructions executed"?
And also if commit.COM:count is the number of instructions executed for the CPU, They are ver disproportioned in my simulation, my results of commit.COM:count are: CPU0: 500k CPU1: 8k CPU2: 8k CPU3: 300k Is this a problem of the Simulator or it just depend of my workload?. And also I have a question regarding the host_seconds , is this the time that the simulation have been running in the host?, in my stats it says that is 85 seconds, that is a number very low compare to the hours that the simulation have been running. 2009/1/5 Ali Saidi <[email protected]>: > > On Jan 5, 2009, at 4:20 PM, Bob Nagel wrote: > >> Hello I have a couple of questions regarding the instructions counter >> that are in the statistics >> >> My post is related with this one >> http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.m5.users/3324/focus=3328, >> I have read it but I still have some questions. >> >> - What is this value, system.cpu0.num_insts 2 # Number of >> instructions executed? and why is so low?.
