+Sysconn is a module which includes information about the SoC, and the info is
+printed at the start of the simulation.
+
+### Time benchmarks
+
+`microwatt-verilator` was compiled with 3 threads for faster simulation.

+- Time to finish printing Sysconn info: about 1min
+- Time to allocate bytes to kernel: ?
+- Time to login prompt: about 1 hour
+- Time to user shell: ?
