The basic clock rate is 1 ps (1 THz).  I think you really want (1
THz/1 Ghz) * 300M, which would be 3x10^11 not 3x10^17 ticks.

As an aside, if you want to fast forward 300M instructions and not
necessarily 300M cycles, it would be good to be able to specify that
directly... didn't we just have a thread on the mailing list about
that?  I don't think it's in the code right now, but did someone out
there add it?  If so, would you mind contributing the code back?
