<h1>Updates in 2019.5<a class="headerlink" href="#updates-in-2019-5" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h1>
<p><strong>General</strong></p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>Added <em>section sets</em> to reduce the default overhead and make it easier to configure metric sets for profiling</p></li>
<li><p>Reduced the size of the installation</p></li>
<li><p>Added support for CUDA Graphs Recapture API</p></li>
<li><p>The NvRules API now supports accessing correlation IDs for instanced metrics</p></li>
<li><p>Added breakdown tables for <em>SOL SM</em> and <em>SOL Memory</em> in the Speed Of Light section for Volta+ GPUs</p></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>NVIDIA Nsight Compute</strong></p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>Added a snap-select feature to the Source page heatmap help navigate large files</p></li>
<li><p>Added support for loading remote CUDA-C source files via SSH on demand for Linux x86_64 targets</p></li>
<li><p>Charts on the Details page provide better help in tool tips when hovering metric names</p></li>
<li><p>Improved the performance of the Source page when scrolling or collapsing</p></li>
<li><p>The charts for Warp States and Compute pipelines are now sorted by value</p></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>NVIDIA Nsight Compute CLI</strong></p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>Added support for GPU cache control, see <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--cache-control</span></code></p></li>
<li><p>Added support for setting the kernel name base in command line output, see <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--kernel-base</span></code></p></li>
<li><p>Added support for listing the available names for <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--chips</span></code>, see <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--list-chips</span></code></p></li>
<li><p>Improved the stability on Windows when using <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--target-processes</span> <span class="pre">all</span></code></p></li>
<li><p>Reduced the profiling overhead for small metric sets in applications with many kernels</p></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Resolved Issues</strong></p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>Reduced the overhead caused by demangling kernel names multiple times</p></li>
<li><p>Fixed an issue that kernel names were not demangled in CUDA Graph Nodes resources window</p></li>
<li><p>The connection dialog better disables unsupported combinations or warns of invalid entries</p></li>
<li><p>Fixed metric <em>thread_inst_executed_true</em> to derive from <em>smsp_not_predicated_off_thread_inst_executed</em> on Volta+ GPUs</p></li>
<li><p>Fixed an issue with computing the theoretical occupancy on GV100</p></li>
<li><p>Selecting an entry on the Source page heatmap no longer selects the respective source line, to avoid losing the current selection</p></li>
<li><p>Fixed the current view indicator of the Source page heatmap to be line-accurate</p></li>
<li><p>Fixed an issue when comparing metrics from Pascal and later architectures on the Summary page</p></li>
<li><p>Fixed an issue that metrics representing constant values on Volta+ couldn’t be collected without non-constant metrics</p></li>
