arXiv:2605.20799v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present Overall FLOP Utilization (OFU), a hardware-level, precision-agnostic GPU efficiency metric for AI workloads on HPC systems, derived from two on-chip performance counters: Tensor Pipe Activity and SM clock frequency. OFU requires no application instrumentation and works across GPU generations and numeric precisions. We characterize five properties of the OFU approximation -- tile quantization, floating-point precision scaling, clock sampling noise, Tensor Core clock domains, and non-tensor undercounting -- through controlled GEMM expe
