benchmarking different saxpy proble, sizes

time to get our black leather jackets!!

Goals:

• set up CUDA dev denvironment
• modify CUDA code
• profile and optimize the implementation
• compare and visualize the performance

WHAT IS CUDA?

soo cuda is to program NVIDIA GPUS to run calculations at the same time in parallel

what is SAXPY problems?

AX + Y its math for the GPU to compute

Tasks:

set up CUDA development environment first time doing this lets see how it goes good thing I have a GPU 1660ti, (dreaming of a 50 series)

after speading hours on setting up the evnment I GOT CUDA ON VSCODE!!

Testing Results:

Testing it and execution time: From 2^N, N = 15, 16, ... 25

Bar Plot:

Question: Why is the low 2^15 slower than the rest?
