Hello, I'm not familiar with what you are referring to by the ruby module - is that an addon for Gem5?
You have a good question, but how would I quantify the difference in simulation speeds between MARSS and Gem5? Is there an established benchmark to run? Kindly, Ben Payne From: gem5-users-boun...@gem5.org [mailto:gem5-users-boun...@gem5.org] On Behalf Of Hamid Reza Khaleghzadeh Sent: Tuesday, October 23, 2012 9:31 AM To: gem5 users mailing list Subject: Re: [gem5-users] gem5 versus MARSS I have a question about MARSS. As you know GEM5 simulation speed with ruby module is very slow. May I know MARSS simulation speed?
