It would be nice if fftw switched to this when it was available.
Or would it? Maybe that would cause too much heterogeneity of
platform. Small changes from one system to another (ATI instead of
nVidia, for example) could change performance drastically. You'd be
unable to rely on an "average" level of performance. I might write
something nifty with my nVidia card and it be unusable by some
significant percentage of people because they just can't run it that
fast.
I dunno. What does everyone think? It's nice, but should we use it?
