Re: [Gems-users] Number of processors

[Philip Garcia <pcgarcia@xxxxxxxx>]

i'm pretty sure it's only a constraint on some of the networks that are used.  I haven't done too much playing around with this, and I've only really simulated processors where the number of cpus was a power of 2, however i have run systems where the number of L1 caches wasn't a power of 2, so it can be done, it just might require some hacking to ruby to get things to work properly.

I'm not sure what you are trying to do, but maybe you can create a 16 core system but only use 10 threads?

Hi,
I'm trying to create a CMP system with 10 processors but I get an error message saying that the number of processors must be a power of two; is there any way to move around this constraint?

Thanks in advance
Mario
