Hi,

I just noticed that the maxtick in configs/common/Options.py (also
configs/splash2/run.py) was defined as:
parser.add_option("-m", "--maxtick", type="int")

Is the type "int" here the same as the int type in C/C++? If so, shouldn't
it overflow easily? (Especially in that maxtick is used to specify the
number of simulated cycles which will reach a very large number in the
simulator). I have done some experiments with maxtick as one billion, and
that number works fine. I wonder if there is a limit on the value of
maxtick.

Thanks,
Lide
