Performance Matters
Download record-setting compilers and tools for free.

The following pages focus on the major Sun Studio software components.


Building
The Sun Studio C, C++, and Fortran compilers include advanced features for building applications on Sun Solaris SPARC and x86/x64 platforms. They utilize a common optimizing backend code generator, and accept standard C, C++, and Fortran with extensions. » Read more
 
Debugging
Successful program debugging is more an art than a science. dbx is an interactive, source-level, post-mortem and real-time command-line debugging tool plus much more. » Read more
 
Analyzing
Performance analysis is the first step toward program optimization. The Sun Studio Performance Analyzer can help you assess the performance of your code, identify potential performance problems, and locate the part of the code where the problems occur. The Performance Analyzer can be used from the command line or from a graphical user interface. » Read more
 
Tuning
Sun Studio C, C++, and Fortran compilers offer a rich set of compile-time options for specifying target hardware and advanced optimization techniques. But knowing which options to pick for a given application can be tricky. » Read more
 
Multicore/Parallel Programming
High Performance and Technical Computing (HPTC) applies numerical computation techniques to highly complex scientific and engineering problems. Sun Studio compilers and tools provide a seamless, integrated environment from desktop to TeraFLOPS for both floating-point and data-intensive computing. » Read more
 
Computing
The floating-point environment on Sun SPARC and x86/x64 platforms enables you to develop robust, high-performance, portable numerical applications. The floating-point environment can also help investigate unusual behavior of numerical programs written by others. The Sun Performance Library provides highly optimized versions of many advanced math function routines. » Read more
