Hmmm... I think you should not worry too much about matching stats with the 
paper because the ROI may be different from what you are using to measure..it's 
enough if you see the required activity on the frame buffer..Also these are 
multi threaded apps..doubling the number of cores does make a difference.

[gem5-users] Moby (Asimbench) statistics mismatch </div><div>
</div>I've been trying to run a few benchmarks from the Moby benchmark suite. 
The results that I'm getting are no close to the ones reported in the paper 
(asg.ict.ac.cn/projects/moby/downloads/Moby-ISPASS2014.pdf). The parameters 
that I was using are slightly different but I still think that the difference 
is too much.
Configuration I'm using:
L1 icache and dcache: 4 way associative, size 32kB
L2: 16 way associative, size 512kB
Memory: type-lpddr2_1066_x32 size:256MB(The size given in the paper is 1GB)
cpu type: arm_detailed
number of cpus: 1(The paper uses 2 cores)

I havent made any other changes to the source files, like access times. 
For example, for the mxplayer benchmark the icache overall miss rate is more 
than an order less than that for dcache. In the paper, it is given the other 
way around. Is this because of the difference in the parameters that I've taken 
or have the authors made other changes?
Thanks a lot.
Cheers.
