About:
NVIDIA Nsight Systems is a system-wide performance analysis tool designed for heterogeneous systems. It enables developers to visualize application performance across both CPU and GPU code, helping to identify bottlenecks and optimize serial, parallel, and GPU code. The tool provides detailed timelines of application execution for deep performance analysis.
Key Features:
  • Unified CPU and GPU timeline visualization
  • Low overhead profiling for accurate performance data
  • Support for CUDA, OpenGL, Vulkan, and DirectX APIs
  • Source code correlation for bottleneck identification
Use Cases:
  • Identifying performance bottlenecks in AI/ML training workloads
  • Optimizing game engine performance across CPU and GPU
  • Analyzing parallel processing efficiency in scientific computing
Alternatives:
  • Instruments – macOS native tool, limited GPU analysis
  • Intel VTune – CPU-focused, less comprehensive GPU support
