That's a good point. I'll coordinate with Nilay offline to get him the right image. Nilay, from your previous optimizations trials, where did you see most of the simulation time being sent at? On Fri, Apr 1, 2011 at 4:48 PM, Ali Saidi wrote: > None of those benchmarks probably push the memory

Thanks for pointing this out. The hammer protocol included a optimization for uniprocessor DMA that was probably was just too aggressive to be worth the complexity. The optimization broke when I fixed another DMA bug in the protocol last week, but I failed realize that since I offend don't thi

None of those benchmarks probably push the memory system with multiple cores like fft. Why don't you give Nilay your fft benchmark? Ali On Fri, 1 Apr 2011 16:42:48 -0400, Korey Sewell wrote: Hi Nilay, I think I've located the images for those benchmarks so I'll test a couple of these over

Hi Nilay, I think I've located the images for those benchmarks so I'll test a couple of these over the weekend and give an update. On Wed, Mar 30, 2011 at 8:03 PM, Nilay Vaish wrote: > Korey, I do not have the FftBase32 benchmark. Is it possible for you to run > the simulation with one of the fo

No. It's only SLICC that's really restrictive and complains if you don't consume a non-void return value. I still think it seems overly restrictive on SLICC's part, but then I assume it was put in for a reason to protect some dangerous SLICC-specific scenarios, so this is a simple way to get arou
