I ran the descrypt project on my 7970. I found that it was doing only a 
single iteration inside the kernel.
http://www.reddit.com/r/crypto/comments/162ufx/research_project_opencl_bitslice_des_bruteforce/

For single iteration its speed was:

Run time: 0.114362 s
Rate: 4694.471722 Mkeys/s
Time to search keyspace: 177.655758 days

So I modified the code a little bit to put it under 25 iteration. 
Surprisingly the speed got reduced by 1/50 times instead of 1/25!! I'm 
trying to figure out why?

Run time: 4.571239 s
Rate: 117.445372 Mkeys/s
Time to search keyspace: 7101.173235 days

Sayantan
