> It's been running more than four days. Is this not unexpected? On a real machine, it takes less than a minute and I don't understand why it would take days on the simulated machine. Unfortunately, it has stalled my work. Could it be possible that there is something wrong with the simulation? I haven't received any error messages though.

On our tutorial slides, we have an example of simulation slowdown.  I
don't recall what it is for Ruby-only, but my guess is around 40,000x
slowdown for 8 or 16 processors.

(1 minute of real time) x (45000) = 31.25 days

Your workload is too long.  Split it up into smaller units of work.
