All the state transitions are in the output file. This will give you an
idea of how busy it is overall. If you want finer detail, you will need

Ruby stats show "Busy Controller Counts" as follows:

Busy Controller Counts:
L2Cache-0:0  L2Cache-1:0 
L1Cache-0:0  L1Cache-1:0 
Directory-0:0  Directory-1:0

Could you please elaborate what busy controller count is? Thank you.
