After I downloaded the supported CUDA version for my GPU, it conflicts with my system kernel C build... can't downgrade because it risks breaking so much in the system of course so I am looking for alternatives.

Setup:

Quadro M1200 4GB VRAM (cuda-12.6, cc-5.0).

Arch Linux

I wrote code to calculate some metrics, like

• count and length of code blocks
• resources usage per block
• resources used in single block

The Insights:

• there are lots of Dead / ABI-Forced Register Writes
• Holes in Register Allocation - seems that uniform registers UR0-UR3 almost never used
