Script to run SPEC CPU2006 benchmarks with gem5.
The script expects a benchmark program name and the simulation
size. The system is fixed with 2 CPU cores, MESI Two Level system
cache and 3 GB DDR4 memory. It uses the x86 board.
This script will count the total number of instructions executed
in the ROI. It also tracks how much wallclock and simulated time.
Usage:
------
```
