[Gems-users] Cycle Time

[arrvindh shriraman <arrvindh_shriraman@xxxxxxxxx>]

In some multifacet papers (eg: Safetynet) when only
Ruby is hooked up for simulation , you state that the
processor cores is capable of executing 4billion
instructions with a perfect-memory hierarchy. Does
this mean you set SIMICS cycle time to be (4GHz) ?
Won't this affect the fidelity of execution ? I am
kind of getting confused between notion of cycle time
for Ruby and SIMICS
