Thank you for your attractive suggestions. The LiteX ecosystem looks very good for usability, evaluation and maintenance for RSD. I'm not sure about the LiteX ecosystem, so I'd like to read the document and source code first, and then comment again.

@shioyadan - I'm happy to provide advice and answer questions. The #litex IRC channel on irc.freenode.net is also a very useful resource.

As actual performance is a lot more complicated than DMIPS/Mhz once you start taking into account things like memory subsystems and memory buses. I think the performance of your superscalar processor will be more interesting once those things are taken into account.
