Hello. Where can I find a compute visual profiler tool? I need to optimize CUDA C++ applications and support Kernel execution. I'm on Windows XP 64 bit. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Hi Halleleilani2,
Thanks for raising the question. It seems that everybody has some issue or other with the different visual profiler tool. So, it's very difficult to point out one tool without knowing the detail of your project type. For your convenience I am mentioning few tools below which I think will suffice your need.
1. One of the great profiling tool to have is NVIDIA Nsight Visual Studio edition. It can integrate easily with Visual Studio, both local & remote analysis support, extensive report tool & good trace activity. You can download it from here.
2. Another good tool to have is NVIDIA Visual profiler. Though both the tool belongs to same company they have distinctive features. NVIDIA Visual profiler is a cross platform, provide expert system to review collected information, timeline has the option to show both GPU & CPU. You will get the option for downloading here.
3. You can also go for Google test from Google which is another testing tool for C++. It supports almost all the platform. You will be able to download & get the tutorial from this link.
4. Another profiler you can try for Windows named Very Sleepy. It's an upgraded version from the original software name Sleepy developed by Code Notes developer. The enhancement includes Call graph profiling, improved UI and support option for 64-bit. Please download from here.
Please select the tool which suits your need best.
Thanks & Regards,
DBD
