Hi all, I'm completely new to MARSS and new to simulation in general. I am trying to run a big Java benchmark on it, which I understand that it will require a large amount of time and I'm willing to do so when collecting statistics. However, at this moment, I simply want to make sure that the benchmark runs and complete cleanly on MARSS (not just on QEMU), and I'm wondering if there is anyway to speedup the simulation. I've only tried a small program in the benchmark and reduced its input size by 10x, but it still took 10 hours to finish.
Does MARSS have some sort of light weight simulation mode that ignore timing/some statistic details? I might have missed something really obvious, but I went through the tutorial/mailing list and didn't seem to see any detail about it. This should be particularly useful as the nature of my current project will require me to modify (for now, only a small) portion of MARSS's source code to make it works in concert with other (non-MARSS) source codes that I have. Although I'm planning to write a small program to test the change first, I imagine there will still be a bug that shows up only when tested with real benchmark. If there is a way to speed up the simulation just to check if the simulator will simulate properly, it will greatly speed up debugging process. Any insights/ advises about this will be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Pat
