Re: [Gems-users] Cache Miss Rate

[Greg Byrd <gbyrd@xxxxxxxx>]

I'm a little out of my depth here (I'm not a GEMS author), but code 
inspection tells me that the "Hit Return" counter is incremented when 
the Sequencer receives a duplicate load/store request from Simics.  In 
my understanding, this happens when the Simics processor is unstalled -- 
it repeats the memory operation that caused the stall.
So, this count is not relevant to cache statistics, and should be 
ignored for that purpose.
