The Unpaid Backbone of Open Source: Solo Maintainers Face Increasing Security Demands
Solo open source maintainers face burnout and security challenges, with 60% unpaid and 60% considering quitting.
A library and CLI utilities for managing performance states of NVIDIA GPUs.
[!IMPORTANT] Try the new implementation - nvidia-pstated. The daemon does not require application patching and switches performance states automatically.
Make sure you have the proprietary NVIDIA driver and the package providing libnvidia-api.so
installed.
nvidia-utils
libnvidia-api1
or libnvidia-tesla-api1
(depending on the GPU and driver installed)libnvidia-gl-535
(?)On Debian derivatives, you can use apt search libnvidia-api.so.1
to find the package you need.
Make sure the NVIDIA driver is installed.
pip3 install nvidia_pstate
# List available performance states (TODO: does not work right now, use nvidia-smi -q and count memory clocks)
nvidia-pstate -q
# Set performance state for specific GPU
nvidia-pstate -i 0 -ps 0
# Let driver decide which performance state GPU should use
nvidia-pstate -i 0 -ps 16
# Set performance state for specific GPUs
nvidia-pstate -i 0 1 3 4 -ps 0
# Set performance state for all GPUs
nvidia-pstate -ps 0
from nvidia_pstate import set_pstate_low, set_pstate_high
set_pstate_low() # set pstate to "low" level (8 by default)
set_pstate_high() # set pstate to "high" level (16 by default)
# default values can be overrided using NVIDIA_PSTATE_LOW and NVIDIA_PSTATE_HIGH environment variables.
