Hmm, what kind of simulator?  I hope it's one that deals with dynamically
generated code since JikesRVM compiles Java to native code *always* (sometimes
with an optimizing compiler but generally first with a non-optimizing one).

I have successfully run JikesRVM on (some of) the DaCapo benchmarks under
a valgrind tool, so valgrind handles all this right (though finding the
right combination of flags and such took some effort, as did dealing
with the fact that "JikesRVM" is normally a script that sets up command
line flags, etc.).  Are you trying to avoid the script, perhaps?

Again, I think if you tell us more we can help you better ...
