Hi Nilay, That's fine. I just think there is value in having one uniform stats framework, and if there is some serious work being put into it, then basing it on gem5 stats seems like a sensible choice from my point of view.
We have some ongoing work to add a database backend for the stats to simplify storing/post-processing/visualisation and obviously that would "just work(?)" if the Ruby bits also used gem5 stats. No pressure, I merely wanted understand and also let you know what changes are in the pipeline.
