As I understand it these aren't supposed to be random numbers spit out by a tool but are supposed to be understandable by how much bandwidth an IP block (like MMC) needs from the busses it's connected to. Since the MMC IP block on sc7180 and sc7280 is roughly the same there shouldn't be a big difference in numbers. Something smells wrong. Adding a few people who understand interconnects better than I do, though. -Doug
