Profile GPU Kernels with One Command, Zero GPU Setup

Hacker News

We've been doing lots of GPU kernel profiling and optimization on cloud infrastructure, but without local GPU hardware, that meant constant SSH juggling: upload code, compile remotely, profile kernels, download results, repeat. We were spending more time managing infrastructure than writing optimized kernels. So we built Chisel: one command spins up a cloud instance, syncs your GPU code, runs profiling (supports Python/PyTorch/TensorFlow and AMD rocprofv3), and automatically pulls results back. Zero local GPU hardware required. Next up: Web dashboard for visualizing results, simultaneous profiling across multiple GPU types, and automatic resource cleanup. Available via PyPI: pip install chisel-cli Github: https://github.com/Herdora/chisel We're actively developing and would love community feedback, especially from GPU devs exploring AMD alternatives to NVIDIA. Feature requests and contributions welcome!
