It reports: - Negotiated PCIe generation and width - Peak Host→Device and Device→Host memcpy bandwidth - Sustained PCIe TX/RX utilization via NVML - A rule-based verdict derived from observable hardware data only
This exists because PCIe issues (Gen downgrades, reduced lane width, risers, bifurcation) are often invisible at the application layer and can’t be fixed by kernel tuning or async overlap.
Linux-only: it relies on sysfs and PCIe AER exposure that Windows does not provide.

Though I don't think there's anything particularly device-specific they're measuring, they're using the private nvidia interfaces to do so.
