Improve Diablo 3 Performance in Mac OS X. Install Java (JRE) Mac OS 10.7 Lion Intel Xeon Phi. IPad inside Windows. This release of the CUDA Toolkit enables development using GPUs using the Kepler architecture, such as the GeForce GTX680. Native macOS profiling is not supported in this release. Remote profiling from a macOS host to other CUDA enabled targets, however, is supported. Supported Mac platforms: Mac OS X 10.13 Steps to install: Double click.dmg file to mount it and access it in finder. Drag nvvp folder and drop it to any location you want (say mac). NVIDIA CUDA Installation Guide for Mac OS X DU-05348-001v11.0 2 1.2. About This Document This document is intended for readers familiar with the Mac OS X environment and the compilation of C programs from the command line. You do not need previous experience with CUDA or experience with parallel computation.

NVIDIA® CUDA Toolkit 11.0 no longer supports development or running applications on macOS. While there are no tools which use macOS as a target environment, NVIDIA is making macOS host versions of these tools that you can launch profiling and debugging sessions on supported target platforms.

You may download all these tools here. Note that the Nsight tools provide the ability to download these macOS host versions on their respective product pages.

Please visit each tool's overview page for more information about the tool and its supported target platforms.

The macOS host tools provided are:

  • Nsight Systems - a system profiler and timeline trace tool supporting Pascal and newer GPUs
  • Nsight Compute - a CUDA kernel profiler supporting Volta and new GPUs
  • Visual Profiler - a CUDA kernel and system profiler and timeline trace tool supporting older GPUs (see installation instructions, below)
  • cuda-gdb - a GPU and CPU CUDA application debugger (see installation instructions, below)

              2. Change to the bin folder
                  > cd <nvvp_mac>/nvvp/bin
              3. Run nvvp script file in command line
                  > ./nvvp -vm <path_to_java>
                <path_to_java> should point to the JRE update 151 version of Java (See Notes about JRE Requirements, below).
                  For example:
                  > ./nvvp -vm /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/zulu-8.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/bin/java

            Notes about JRE Requirements when using Visual Profiler on the macOS

              OpenJDK provides an open-source (and standards compliant) implementation of a Java compliant JVM.
              Binaries are provided by various vendors such as Oracle, Azul Systems (Zulu), Amazon, Red Hat, IBM, etc.
              Visual Profiler needs to use an older version of Java, specifically JRE update 151, to work correctly.
              This is currently not offered by Oracle JDK but is provided by Azul Systems (Zulu).
              The Bazel Build project also uses the Zulu builds of OpenJDK.

            Nvidia Cuda Driver Mac

              Download JDK 8.0.144 to get JRE update 151:
                • Download version: 8u144-b01 (Zulu: 8.23.0.3) .dmg.zip.tar.gz
                • Download version: Zulu 8.23.0.3 (build 1.8.0_144-b01 .zip
