Cycles of 0 Ports Utilized

Metric Description

This metric represents a fraction of cycles with no uOps executed by the CPU on any execution port. Long-latency instructions like divides may contribute to this metric.

Possible Issues

CPU executed no uOps on any execution port during a significant fraction of cycles. Long-latency instructions like divides may contribute to this issue. Check the Assembly view and Appendix C in the Optimization Guide to identify instructions with 5 or more cycles latency.

Product and Performance Information

Intel's compilers may or may not optimize to the same degree for non-Intel microprocessors for optimizations that are not unique to Intel microprocessors. These optimizations include SSE2, SSE3, and SSSE3 instruction sets and other optimizations. Intel does not guarantee the availability, functionality, or effectiveness of any optimization on microprocessors not manufactured by Intel. Microprocessor-dependent optimizations in this product are intended for use with Intel microprocessors. Certain optimizations not specific to Intel microarchitecture are reserved for Intel microprocessors. Please refer to the applicable product User and Reference Guides for more information regarding the specific instruction sets covered by this notice.
