Hey, I am trying to tune the configurations of M5 and sim-outorder to achieve similar IPC results for uniprocessor simulations. Using more or less identical processor configurations (as good as possible considering the differences between the two simulators), identical cache configurations, etc., I am getting "reasonable" results. One statistic is bothering me though, and that is the amount of L1 icache lookups. For an identical benchmark, sim-outorder reports +/- twice as many icache lookups as M5. L1 data and L2 unified cache lookups only differ a few percent.
Does anyone have an idea where this huge difference is coming from?
