Hi Yaniv,

These are register values from cores which reads start flag correctly and
reaches idle instruction:

[0x000f0400] = 0x00080000
[0x000f0404] = 0x00001000
[0x000f0408] = 0x000007e8
[0x000f040c] = 0x00000000
[0x000f0410] = 0x00000000
[0x000f0414] = 0x00000000
[0x000f0418] = 0x00000000
[0x000f041c] = 0x00000000
[0x000f0420] = 0x00000858
[0x000f0424] = 0x000003ff
[0x000f0428] = 0x00000000
[0x000f042c] = 0x00000000
[0x000f0430] = 0x00000000
[0x000f0434] = 0x00000000
[0x000f0438] = 0x00000000
[0x000f043c] = 0x00000000
[0x000f0440] = 0x00000000
[0x000f0444] = 0x00002600
[0x000f0448] = 0x00000000

But cores which don't read and update start flags have these values:
core (3, 5) has zero on all addresses except [0x000f0444] = 0x00003500
core (4, 6) has zero on all locations
core (7, 4) has zero on all addresses except [0x000f0444] = 0x00000200
core (7, 5) has zero on all addresses except [0x000f0444] = 0x00002600

It seems that some cores don't start computation. So far it looks random,
only regularity I see is that first two rows work (If I use only first two
rows I get 1207 c/s).
