[ 4 / 4 ] Application profile is long enough (10.03 s)
To have good quality measurements, it is advised that the application profiling time is greater than 10 seconds.
[ 2.70 / 3 ] Optimization level option is correctly used
[ 2.16 / 3 ] Most of time spent in analyzed modules comes from functions without compilation information
Functions without compilation information (typically not compiled with -g) cumulate 10.10% of the time spent in analyzed modules. Check that -g is present. Remark: if -g is indeed used, this can also be due to some compiler built-in functions (typically math) or statically linked libraries. This warning can be ignored in that case.
[ 2.70 / 3 ] Architecture specific option -axCORE is used
[ 2 / 2 ] Application is correctly profiled ("Others" category represents 5.38 % of the execution time)
To have a representative profiling, it is advised that the category "Others" represents less than 20% of the execution time in order to analyze as much as possible of the user code
[ 4 / 4 ] Enough time of the experiment time spent in analyzed loops (64.86%)
If the time spent in analyzed loops is less than 30%, standard loop optimizations will have a limited impact on application performances.
[ 3 / 4 ] CPU activity is below 90% (79.57%)
CPU cores are idle more than 10% of time. Threads supposed to run on these cores are probably IO/sync waiting. Some hints: use faster filesystems to read/write data, improve parallel load balancing and/or scheduling.
[ 3 / 4 ] A significant amount of threads are idle (21.66%)
On average, more than 10% of observed threads are idle. Such threads are probably IO/sync waiting. Some hints: use faster filesystems to read/write data, improve parallel load balancing and/or scheduling.
[ 3 / 4 ] Affinity stability is lower than 90% (84.51%)
Threads are often migrating to other CPU cores/threads. For OpenMP, typically set (OMP_PLACES=cores OMP_PROC_BIND=close) or (OMP_PLACES=threads OMP_PROC_BIND=spread). With OpenMPI + OpenMP, use --bind-to core --map-by node:PE=$OMP_NUM_THREADS --report-bindings. With IntelMPI + OpenMP, set I_MPI_PIN_DOMAIN=omp:compact or I_MPI_PIN_DOMAIN=omp:scatter and use -print-rank-map.
[ 4 / 4 ] Loop profile is not flat
At least one loop coverage is greater than 4% (5.35%), representing an hotspot for the application
[ 4 / 4 ] Enough time of the experiment time spent in analyzed innermost loops (37.20%)
If the time spent in analyzed innermost loops is less than 15%, standard innermost loop optimizations such as vectorisation will have a limited impact on application performances.
[ 3 / 3 ] Cumulative Outermost/In between loops coverage (27.66%) lower than cumulative innermost loop coverage (37.20%)
Having cumulative Outermost/In between loops coverage greater than cumulative innermost loop coverage will make loop optimization more complex
[ 3 / 3 ] Less than 10% (0.00%) is spend in BLAS1 operations
It could be more efficient to inline by hand BLAS1 operations
[ 2 / 2 ] Less than 10% (0.00%) is spend in BLAS2 operations
BLAS2 calls usually could make a poor cache usage and could benefit from inlining.
[ 2 / 2 ] Less than 10% (0.00%) is spend in Libm/SVML (special functions)
