This page outlines ways to generate and view performance data for your program using tools available at OSC.
Intel Tools
This section describes how to use performance tools from Intel. Make sure that you have an Intel module loaded to use these tools.
Intel VTune
Intel VTune is a tool to generate profile data for your application. Generating profile data with Intel VTune typically involves three steps:

Condo model refers to that the participants (condo owners) lease one or more compute nodes for the shared cluster while OSC provides all infrastructure, as well as maintenance and services. CCAPP Condo on Pitzer cluster is owned by the Center for Cosmology and AstroParticle Physics, at OSU. Prof. Annika Peter has been heavily involved in specifying requirements.

Desmond is a software package that perform high-speed molecular dynamics simulations of biological systems on conventional commodity clusters, general-purpose supercomputers, and GPUs. The code uses novel parallel algorithms and numerical techniques to achieve high performance and accuracy on platforms containing a large number of processors, but may also be executed on a single computer. Desmond includes code optimized for machines with an NVIDIA GPU.

Pitzer
Pitzer includes two types of processors, Intel® Xeon® 'Skylake' processor and Intel® Xeon® 'Cascade Lake' processor. This document provides you information on how to request resources based on the requirements of # of cores, memory, etc despite the heterogeneous nature of the Pitzer cluster. Therefore, in some cases, your job can land on either type of processor.
Replace MV2_ENABLE_AFFINITY=0 with MV2_CPU_BINDING_POLICY=hybrid.
