Radeon GPU Profiler 2.1 Adds Radeon GPU Analyzer Interoperability

([Radeon] 5 Hours Ago Radeon GPU Profiler 2.1)


AMD's GPUOpen team today released the Radeon GPU Profiler 2.1 software that now sports interoperability with the Radeon GPU Analyzer.

The Radeon GPU Profiler is AMD's low-level optimization tool for helping to enhance the performance of GPU workloads on Radeon hardware. While catering to AMD's Radeon Software drivers, Mesa's [1]RADV Vulkan driver has added Radeon GPU Profiler support (including to help with [2]Vulkan ray-tracing with RGP ) and [3]RadeonSI support too .

With today's Radeon GPU Profiler 2.1 release, there is Radeon GPU Analyzer interoperability so that binary pipelines being dealt with Radeon GPU Profiler can be automatically loaded into a new instance of the Radeon GPU Analyzer for analysis.

The Radeon GPU Profiler 2.1 release also has some UI enhancements, improved latency visualization, and various fixes. The Radeon GPU Profiler for Windows and Linux can be downloaded from [4]GitHub . More details on the RGP 2.1 release can also be found via an announcement on [5]GPUOpen.com .

Brief History Of Linux (#11)
Birth of Gates and the Anti-Gates

October 28, 1955 saw the birth of William H. Gates, who would rise above
his humble beginnings as the son of Seattle's most powerful millionaire
lawyer and become the World's Richest Man(tm). A classic American
rags-to-riches story (with "rags" referring to the dollar bills that the
Gates family used for toilet paper), Bill Gates is now regarded as the
world's most respected businessman by millions of clueless people that
have obviously never touched a Windows machine.

Nature is all about balance. The birth of Gates in 1955 tipped the cosmic
scales toward evil, but the birth of Linus Torvalds in 1969 finally
balanced them out. Linus' destiny as the savior of Unix and the slayer of
money-breathing Redmond dragons was sealed when, just mere hours after his
birth, the Unix epoch began January 1st, 1970. While the baseline for Unix
timekeeping might be arbitrary, we here at Humorix like to thank the its
proximity of Linus' birth is no coincidence.
