Profiling JAX programs

To profile JAX programs, there are currently two options: nvprof and XLA's profiling features.

nvprof

Nvidia's nvprof tool can be used to trace and profile JAX code on GPU. For details, see the nvprof documentation.

XLA profiling

XLA has some built-in support for profiling on both CPU and GPU. To use XLA's profiling features from JAX, set the environment variables TF_CPP_MIN_LOG_LEVEL=0 and XLA_FLAGS=--xla_hlo_profile. XLA will log profiling information about each computation JAX runs. For example:

$ TF_CPP_MIN_LOG_LEVEL=0 XLA_FLAGS=--xla_hlo_profile ipython
