Show HN: PantheonGPU – GPU health testing and AI workload benchmarking

PantheonGPU 1.0.14, a GPU health testing and AI workload benchmarking tool, is now available as a Debian package and portable bundle for Linux. The tool tests GPU compute, memory, cache, interconnect, and power behavior, and automatically detects CUDA, ROCm/HIP, or mock mode. It is designed for users to run focused workloads, capture telemetry, and compare results over time.

GPU stress testing and diagnostics Pantheon tests GPU compute, memory, cache, interconnect, and power behavior. Run focused workloads, capture telemetry, and keep the results for comparison. Quick Start The Debian package is the simplest installation path for Ubuntu and Debian systems. 1. Install prerequisites Install the basic build tools: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install -y make g++ Then install the compiler for your GPU platform. You only need one: sudo apt-get install -y nvidia-cuda-toolkit sudo apt-get install -y hipcc 2. Install Pantheon Download and install the latest Debian package: VERSION=1.0.14 wget "https://github.com/saqibkh/pantheongpu website/releases/download/v${VERSION}/pantheongpu ${VERSION} amd64.deb" sudo apt install "./pantheongpu ${VERSION} amd64.deb" To uninstall the Debian package later: sudo apt-get remove pantheongpu 3. Verify the installation Run a short hardware inventory test: pantheon --test baseline metrics --duration 10 Then run a targeted stress test on GPU 0: pantheon --test fp64 virus --duration 30 --gpu 0 Note Pantheon automatically detects CUDA, ROCm/HIP, or mock mode. Run the pantheon command directly; you do not need to pass --platform cuda . Completely remove Pantheon The native package command above removes Pantheon's package-managed files. To also remove runtime-created files and the current user's compiled workload cache, or to remove a portable installation on RHEL, Fedora, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, or another Linux distribution, run: curl -fsSL https://pantheongpu.com/uninstall.sh | sudo sh This leaves CUDA, ROCm, system compilers, and benchmark reports stored outside Pantheon's installation and cache directories untouched. Alternative: install from the release bundle The release bundle contains the Debian package and an install.sh helper for RHEL-family and other Linux distributions. VERSION=1.0.14 wget "https://github.com/saqibkh/pantheongpu website/releases/download/v${VERSION}/pantheongpu ${VERSION} amd64.tar.gz" tar -xzf "pantheongpu ${VERSION} amd64.tar.gz" cd "pantheongpu ${VERSION} amd64" sudo apt install "./packages/pantheongpu ${VERSION} amd64.deb" Uninstall a Debian package installation with: sudo apt-get remove pantheongpu On RHEL-family and other Linux systems, install the portable bundle with sudo ./install.sh . Remove that installation with: sudo rm -f /usr/local/bin/pantheon && sudo rm -rf /opt/pantheongpu Use the complete-removal command above if you also want to clear the current user's compiled workload cache. Build cache First-run workload builds are cached under ${XDG CACHE HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/pantheongpu/builds/ . Set PANTHEON BUILD CACHE DIR to choose another writable cache directory.
