Detailed Description

Discover how to use the Locks and Waits analysis of Intel® VTune™ Amplifier to identify one of the most common reasons for an inefficient parallel application - threads waiting too long on synchronization objects (locks) while processor cores are underutilized. Focus your tuning efforts on objects with long waits where the system is underutilized.
