From 7415251d79cc19e209e79c8786b3361707a4675d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wilson Fung Date: Sun, 21 Jul 2013 15:28:56 -0800 Subject: Lengthened the DRAM return queue size to have enough credits in order to keep the DRAM utilized. Also extended the state printing function to print out mem_fetch entries inside the DRAM delay queue.
