<h4>
NAME
</h4>
<ul>
mips - display simulated mips
</ul>

<h4>SYNOPSIS</h4>
<tt>
<ul>
mips
</ul>
</tt>

<h4>DESCRIPTION</h4>
<ul>
The mips command displays the simulated system's simulated mips
which is simulated instructions per simulated second.  This differs
from simulated instructions per wall-clock second which is provided by
the <a href="cmd_perf.html">perf</a> command.
<p>
The mips output is the average over all the cpus/strands being
simulated, in other words it is the speed of the cpus not their
aggregate throughput.
<P>
The reason for having the "mips" command is that when "conf
and "conf kmips" have been set to different values then the
overall system mips depends on the ratio of user to kernel
instructions. otherwise the "mips" output will
match the "conf mips" parameter, however you do still get to
see the user/kernel ratio dynamically.
</ul>

<h4>RETURN VALUES</h4>
<ul>
Simulated instructions per simulated second.
