Intel releases graphics performance analyzer   

Intel released a Graphics Performance Analyzer (GPA) suite of software tools designed to help game makers optimize graphics on Intel's Visual Adrenaline developer program. The application allows game developers to target a wider range of consumer hardware by allowing varying levels of performance tailored specifically at GPU-specific levels of performance.

The software works like Intel's VTune app for the CPU, in that it looks for ways to increase performance and throughput of gaming graphics by analyzing what the software is doing, and suggesting better ways to do it.

Intel's VTune software enables x86-based CPU programs to be optimized in ways which are often impossible for compilers to know about, or are very difficult to code for manually.


According to Intel:

GPA provides in-depth application analysis and customization so developers can pinpoint performance bottlenecks and optimize games for Intel-based desktop PCs and laptops that use Intel's chipsets. GPA consists of three components: System Analyzer, Frame Analyzer and the Software Development Kit (SDK). System Analyzer delivers high-level views of overall software performance, Frame Analyzer offers in-depth frame-by-frame performance analysis and the SDK enables developers to customize the suite according to their needs. Developers have the choice to run the tools locally or remotely through a network connection.


Elliot Garbus, VP and GM of Intel's Visual Computing Software Division, said, "Game developers need simple, yet powerful tools which enable them to create games that look real, act real and feel real. The Intel Graphics Performance Analyzers suite is the only software development toolkit that provides a holistic view of system performance for games running on Intel Integrated Graphics. Solving performance bottlenecks with GPA ensures developers are delivering the best gaming experience

the intel graphics performance analyzer has used for gaming graphics
it has mainly used to develop the gaming world with graphics using this intel chip
the x86-based CPU programs to be optimized in ways which are often impossible for compilers
in gpa it has three component
system analyzer,frame analyzer and software development kit
