- 1. Intel VTune Performance Analyzer Semester – C By - Vikram Singh Saini Year – 2009
- 2. Intel VTune –– Performance Analyzer Intel VTune Performance Analyzer INTRODUCTION Intel VTune is a software analysis tool that enables you to analyze the performance of your application. Use Sampling to gain accurate representation of your software’s actual performance. Code Optimization and Performance Tuning Using Intel VTune Produce picture of program flow to identify critical functions & call sequences using Call Graph profiling. Track system activity and resource consumption during runtime with Counter Monitor. Tune code more efficiently using Tuning Assistant. 2
- 3. Intel VTune –– Performance Analyzer Intel VTune Performance Analyzer SAMPLING Sampling is the process of collecting set of data for analysis & representing analyzed data in statistical format. Sampling helps you to identify:- 1. Hotspots – Section of code within module that takes Code Optimization and Performance long time to execute. 2. Bottlenecks Using Intel VTune that slows down the Tuning – Area in the code execution of the application. Two types of sampling mechanism: 1. Time-Based sampling. 2. Event –Based sampling. 3
- 4. Intel VTune –– Performance Analyzer Intel VTune Performance Analyzer SAMPLING (Contd…) TIME – BASED SAMPLING Collects samples of activity at regular intervals. Time based sampling uses the OS timer to calculate Code Optimization and Performance the time Tuning Using Intel VTune interval for collecting samples. Collected samples displays the performance data of all the processes running on computer. The process that takes the longest time to execute contains the largest number of samples. 4

- 6. Intel VTune –– Performance Analyzer Intel VTune Performance Analyzer SAMPLING (Contd…) EVENT – BASED SAMPLING Event based sampling is performed on basis of processor events. Code Optimization and Performance By using EBS, Using Intel VTune which Tuning one can determine process,thread,module,function or code line in the application is generating the largest number of processor events . Using EBS you can view the corresponding events which are taking part while application is executing. 6

- 8. Intel VTune –– Performance Analyzer Intel VTune Performance Analyzer SAMPLING (Contd…) SAMPLING OVER TIME Sampling OverTime view displays the samples collected with respect to time for a single event. Code Optimization and Performance Enables you to identify which threads are running Tuning Using Intel VTune serially & in parallel at any point in time. Can gather following information:- @ Context switching @ Processor utilization @ Thread interaction @ Temporal location of Hotspots 8
- 9. Intel VTune –– Performance Analyzer Intel VTune Performance Analyzer CALL GRAPHS It helps you to obtain information about the functional flow of an application. One can identify the critical path of the application or module. Code Optimization and Performance Tuning Using Intel VTune Identify function which took long time and can be optimized. Intel Vtune displays the results of the call graph in three views: I. Graph view. II. Call list view. III. Function summary view. 9
