VaniDL

VaniDL is an tool for analyzing I/O patterns and behavior with Deep Learning Applications. It analyzes Darshan Extended traces to extract various I/O patterns with Deep Learning applications. The tool at it core uses vanidl which converts Darshan Profiler’s trace into knowledge for analysis. It is designed to provide low-level I/O behavior details to tensorflow applications in HPC.

VaniDL features include:

• Easy-to-use and understand high-level API for extracting I/O behavior of the applications.
• Fast prototyping through highly modular data representation through pandas for easy plotting of graphs.
• Full transparency over profiling data with access to internal data structures such as timeline of applications, aggregation functions, and drill up/down data views.
• Powerful helper functions to build a visual understanding of how applications perform I/O such as request distributions, file access pattern, and extracting file specific summaries.
• Easy to use File Summary and Job Summary extractors for understanding the data consumed by Deep Learning Applications

Overview

#Initialize class
profile = DLProfile()
#Load darshan file
status = profile.Load("./run1.darshan")
#Get Job Summary
summary = profile.GetSummary()

#Application Timeline of data operations
tl = profile.CreateIOTimeline()
plt.figure(figsize=(20,4))
plt.grid()
plt.plot(tl['time_step'], tl['operation_count']);
