Abstract
A computer-implemented method is provided for estimating the performance of a GPU application on a new computing machine having an increased GPU-link performance ratio relative to a current computing machine having a current GPU-link performance ratio. The method includes adding a delay to CPU-GPU communication on the current computing machine to simulate a delayed-communication environment on the current computing machine. The method further includes executing the target GPU application in the delayed-communication environment. The method also includes measuring the performance of the target GPU application in the delayed-communication environment. The method additionally includes estimating the performance of the new computing machine having the increased higher GPU-link performance ratio, based on the measured performance of the target GPU application in the delayed-communication environment.
