[ 4 / 4 ] Application profile is long enough (112.87 s)
To have good quality measurements, it is advised that the application profiling time is greater than 10 seconds.
[ 2.90 / 3 ] Optimization level option is correctly used
[ 2.90 / 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.
[ 2.90 / 3 ] Architecture specific option -x CORE is used
[ 2 / 2 ] Application is correctly profiled ("Others" category represents 0.77 % 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 (65.15%)
If the time spent in analyzed loops is less than 30%, standard loop optimizations will have a limited impact on application performances.
[ 4 / 4 ] Loop profile is not flat
At least one loop coverage is greater than 4% (24.14%), representing an hotspot for the application
[ 4 / 4 ] Enough time of the experiment time spent in analyzed innermost loops (64.03%)
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 ] Less than 10% (0%) is spend in BLAS1 operations
It could be more efficient to inline by hand BLAS1 operations
[ 3 / 3 ] Cumulative Outermost/In between loops coverage (1.12%) lower than cumulative innermost loop coverage (64.03%)
Having cumulative Outermost/In between loops coverage greater than cumulative innermost loop coverage will make loop optimization more complex
[ 2 / 2 ] Less than 10% (0%) is spend in Libm/SVML (special functions)
[ 2 / 2 ] Less than 10% (2.23%) is spend in BLAS2 operations
BLAS2 calls usually could make a poor cache usage and could benefit from inlining.
