Abstract

A method for determining a sparse memory size during emulation, the method including: determining, by a profiler memory coupled to a user memory, that one or more pages of the user memory are used by a first test sequence of a testbench during the emulation; identifying, by the profiler memory, a first set of indexes of the one or more pages of the user memory used by the first test sequence; determining a number of unique pages of the user memory that are used by the first test sequence for the emulation based on the first set of indexes; determining, by a processor, the sparse memory size for the user memory based on the number of unique pages of the user memory that are used by the testbench for the emulation and a page size of the user memory.
