SPECviewperf Workload Profiles

The following profile runs the SPECviewperf Workloads.

PERF-GPU-SPECVIEW.json​

Runs the stock SPECviewperf Workloads.

Note that this profile requires the AMD or Nvidia GPU driver + CUDA toolsets to be already installed on the system. The profile does not attempt to install the GPU driver or any of the dependencies required by the driver. If the driver is not already installed, then this profile will fail to capture workload information.
