There are many ways to optimize code for GPUs. In this post, youβll learn how kernel fusion can improve memory bandwidth and reduce kernel launch overhead, along with multiple ways to apply it in NVIDIA CUDA code. A common bottleneck when writing GPU code is that GPU compute is so fast that even high-bandwidth device memory doesnβt use the GPU kernel fully. Kernel fusion addresses this byβ¦
