If I just want to save the cache state for warmup purpose on future runs,
should I just use ruby0.save-caches? and ruby0.load-caches to warmup?


Yes

What exactly is saved when I do save-caches? just the addresses of data
stored inside the cache with the corresponding tag bits? or is the actual
data stored?


A trace of loads is generated based on the addresses in the cache.  The
reason we do this is because we can use the same warmup trace for many
different configurations of cache sizes.

good to know. I am in the middle of generating traces for different sized caches. I guess 1 run is enough given the way it loads the addresses.

thx
