Thanks Lisa.

I should've payed more attention to his configuration: "I'm running one
core, with one thread, split level 1 caches and physical memory."

MSHRs arent really a big deal in that case.

Max,
if you just go into the physical memory object and create relevant
read/write statistics you can be sure of the values you get.
