Input continues to be echoed but there is no output until I do something on the other terminal. This seems to happen more on simhv3.9-0 vs simhv4.0-0 but occurs on both. Im not sure if this is a mux problem or an execution problem.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">- The clock seems to drift slowly backwards.
