I have at least one 450Mhz k6 in my spare bedroom. I'll by happy to
sell it to you as a platform for running debian and qemu. I'm sure it's
performance would be lower than most of the current amd processors,
though it might not be slower than some of the current intel chips,
(*grin*).

Data caches typically do many things in one cycle; f

Hm... you have to elaborate on that one. Aren't those caches like other

It all depends on the code you're running. Certainly branch prediction can
have a major effect

Agreed. So let's see what's needed to get a reliably corresponding
system. I'm interested in three layers: CPU, hard disk and network.
Networking is the simplest, I

Modern CPUs are complicated, with many factors effecting execution speed
(pipeline interlocks, multiple levels of cache). A cycle accurate simulator
will generally be orders of magnitude slower than qemu.
Would it be feasible to just limit the number of instructions qemu
