Abstract
Techniques for obtaining the performance of an integrated circuit design are disclosed. One such technique may retrieve, from a data store, a set of snapshots of a virtual machine of a host system taken during execution of a performance test. For each snapshot in the set of snapshots, the snapshot can be loaded onto a virtual machine running on an emulator that is emulating the integrated circuit design. The virtual machine can be executed for a reduced runtime, and the performances measured during execution of the snapshots can be used to derive the performance of the integrated circuit design.
