Performance Unlocked: Introducing the Ampere Performance Toolkit (APT)

As you pursue optimal efficiency and performance for your software, you understand that squeezing the most out of modern processors requires insight into the underlying hardware. At Ampere®, we recognize that the path to true optimization demands instilling a performance discipline, a consistent, predictable performance evaluation, and using the appropriate tools and methods to identify and root cause issues. That is why we created the Ampere Performance Toolkit (APT). The fundamental intent of the toolkit is to help you follow a disciplined methodology: establish a consistent, predictable benchmarking approach, eliminate system-level bottlenecks, analyze application bottlenecks, and finally perform microarchitectural analysis. This allows for more effective test and optimize cycles.
