Simulator features
- Interval model: a fast, high-abstraction level core simulation model using the interval model
- CPI stack generation
- x86-64 architecture support
- Python scripting support (DVFS control, etc.)
- OpenMP support
- Simulation statistics collection (sim.stats)
- Support scripts for parsing and understanding statistics
- ROI (region of interest) support
- Multi-OS support (RedHat, Ubuntu, Debian support/gcc 4.3 or higher)
- Easy debugging of the simulator, and applications running in Pin (--gdb, --appdebug)
- Multiple instrumentation modes
