Hi,
I was wondering:
1) how accurate is the powerpc simulation ? ( are the cycles based on
datasheets?)
2) If a certain routine take 1000 cycles, are these clockcycles or
machinecycles ? I'm a bit confused on this. So, for example, I have a 100MHz
ppc CPU, is the time passed for that routine: (1000 / 100e6) seconds?
Thanks in advance,
Jan
