Re: [Gems-users] how many processors does GEMS support

You can also check the Simics documentation on this. If I remember correctly, 
Simics can simulate a system with up to 384 UltraSpacrIII processors. We haven't 
tested it here though.

I would also like to point out that the current release of GEMS only supports 
processor counts that are powers of two.
