PTXBench is a benchmark designed to evaluate and adapt large language models (LLMs) for GPU kernel optimization using architecture-specific PTX code. It assesses functional correctness, runtime execution of target instructions, and speedup over leading libraries on GEMM and attention workloads on H100 and B200 GPUs. The study finds uneven performance across models, especially on complex attention backward tasks, and shows that fine‑tuning Qwen3.6‑27B improves some tasks but generalization remains inconsistent.
