GPU Metrics - SM Clock
In the previous blog, we discussed why tracking and reporting GPU Memory Utilization metrics matters. In this blog, we will dive deeper into another critical GPU metric i.e. GPU SM Clock. The GPU SM clock (Streaming Multiprocessor clock) metric refers to the clock speed at which the GPU's cores (SMs) are running.
The SM is the main processing unit of the GPU, responsible for executing compute tasks such as deep learning operations, simulations, and graphics rendering. Monitoring the SM clock speed can help users assess the performance and health of your GPU during workloads and detect potential bottlenecks related to clock speed throttling.
