Hi!

	And how about if I would like to modify, for example, the size of 
a L2 bank?
	How is it possible to see if the modified value is properly 
applied from the statistics? Is there any relationship between the cache 
objects in Gems and objects in Simics? When I type list-object in Simics I 
don't see the objects created by Gems.
	Your help will be greatly appreciated!
	Thanks,
