IntelĀ® Tuning Assistant topicStreaming SIMD Extensions and Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 Computational Instructions

These indicators represent the percentage of computational instructions that are of the Streaming SIMD Extensions (SSE) and Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (SSE2) types. The integer instruction percentage is simply 100 minus the percentage of all other instruction types.

Counter dependencies:

This insight is dependent on the following performance counter functions:

PackedSPFPStreamingSIMDExt Instructions = (Packed Single-precision Floating-point Streaming SIMD Extension Instructions Retired/Instructions Retired)*100
low value:
0
high value:
0.01

PackedDPFPStreamingSIMDExt Instructions = (Packed Double-precision Floating-point Streaming SIMD Extension Instructions Retired/Instructions Retired)*100
low value:
0
high value:
0.01

ScalarSPFPStreamingSIMDExt Instructions = (Scalar Single-precision Floating-point Streaming SIMD Extension Instructions Retired/Instructions Retired)*100
low value:
0
high value:
0.01

ScalarDPFPStreamingSIMDExt Instructions = (Scalar Double-Precision Floating-Point Streaming SIMD Extension Instructions Retired/Instructions Retired)*100
low value:
0
high value:
0.01

This insight is relevant when PackedSPFPStreamingSIMDExt Instructions is high or PackedDPFPStreamingSIMDExt Instructions is high or ScalarSPFPStreamingSIMDExt Instructions is high or ScalarDPFPStreamingSIMDExt Instructions is high.
