KernelArc is a multi-agent framework designed to autonomously optimize GPU kernels across diverse workloads. It employs strategy-specialized agents that run concurrently, coordinating via conclusions-only shared memory, a deterministic benchmark guard, and read-only cross-agent state with plateau-triggered drafting. Evaluated on NVIDIA H100 and B200 GPUs with SOL-ExecBench workloads, KernelArc produced top-ranked implementations for tasks such as BF16 GEMM, cuBLASLt configuration tables, and various attention mechanisms, achieving first place on several leaderboard categories.

AgentPerfBench is a new benchmarking suite designed to evaluate the inference performance of agentic large language models (LLMs) that handle multi‑turn, tool‑using, and context‑expanding tasks. It builds on real traces from agentic benchmarks such as SWE‑Bench and TerminalBench, and generates synthetic profiles that reflect realistic input/output lengths and turn counts. The suite also provides kernel‑level Nsight Compute traces and a multi‑dimensional roofline model to identify hardware bottlenecks and quantify the gap between traditional chat benchmarks and agentic workloads.
arXiv:2608. 10506v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Accurate pre-deployment estimation of CNN inference cost--energy, latency, and peak memory--is increasingly critical as models are deployed on resource-constrained GPU platforms.
