[ 4 / 4 ] Application profile is long enough (193.88 s)
To have good quality measurements, it is advised that the application profiling time is greater than 10 seconds.
[ 2.88 / 3 ] Optimization level option is correctly used
[ 2.87 / 3 ] Most of time spent in analyzed modules comes from functions compiled with -g and -fno-omit-frame-pointer
-g option gives access to debugging informations, such are source locations. -fno-omit-frame-pointer improve the accuracy of callchains found during the application profiling.
[ 2 / 3 ] Security settings from the host restrict profiling. Some metrics will be missing or incomplete.
Current value for kernel.perf_event_paranoid is 2. If possible, set it to 1 or check with your system administrator which flag can be used to achieve this.
[ 2.87 / 3 ] Architecture specific option -march=znver4 is used
[ 2 / 2 ] Application is correctly profiled ("Others" category represents 9.16 % 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
[ 1 / 1 ] Lstopo present. The Topology lstopo report will be generated.
[ 0 / 0 ] Fastmath not used
Consider to add ffast-math to compilation flags (or replace -O3 with -Ofast) to unlock potential extra speedup by relaxing floating-point computation consistency. Warning: floating-point accuracy may be reduced and the compliance to IEEE/ISO rules/specifications for math functions will be relaxed, typically 'errno' will no longer be set after calling some math functions.
[ 4 / 4 ] Enough time of the experiment time spent in analyzed loops (34.52%)
If the time spent in analyzed loops is less than 30%, standard loop optimizations will have a limited impact on application performances.
[ 4 / 4 ] CPU activity is good
CPU cores are active 90.94% of time
[ 4 / 4 ] Threads activity is good
On average, more than 90.94% of observed threads are actually active
[ 4 / 4 ] Affinity is good (99.93%)
Threads are not migrating to CPU cores: probably successfully pinned
[ 4 / 4 ] Loop profile is not flat
At least one loop coverage is greater than 4% (6.89%), representing an hotspot for the application
[ 4 / 4 ] Enough time of the experiment time spent in analyzed innermost loops (19.22%)
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 (15.31%) lower than cumulative innermost loop coverage (19.22%)
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% (0.54%) 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)
