Debugging software itself is a hard task, but debugging GPU software environments can be even more challenging. Understanding the intricate interactions between hardware, drivers, CUDA, C++ dependencies, and Python libraries can be far more complex.
In this talk we will dig into how these different layers interact and how you can address some of the common pitfalls that folks run into when configuring GPU Python environments. We will also introduce a new tool, RAPIDS Doctor, that aims to take the challenge out of ensuring your software environments are in good shape. RAPIDS Doctor checks and diagnoses environmental health issues straight from the command line, ensuring that your setup is fully functional and optimized for performance.
