NVIDIA Releases Industry’s First OpenCL Performance Profiler for the GPU
By
Today, NVIDIA announced the industry’s first OpenCL Visual Profiler, providing developers with insight into performance bottlenecks and opportunities for optimization. Key features include:
- Profiling of actual hardware signals, kernel efficiency, and instruction issue rate
- Timing of memory copies between system memory and GPU dedicated memory
- Customizable graphs to help developers focus in on problem areas
- Basic auto-analysis to reveal warp serialization problems
- Easy import/export to CSV for custom analysis
Leveraging the extensive performance instrumentation in NVIDIA’s OpenCL drivers and hardware performance signals designed into NVIDIA GPUs, the OpenCL Visual Profiler provides developers with insight into performance bottlenecks and opportunities for optimization.
