Thank you!  magnum is the one to merge this into the tree.

What CPU and GPU are you testing this on?

How do these OpenCL speed numbers compare to those for Lukas' OpenCL
code?  And to those for Lukas' CUDA code (if you use an Nvidia GPU)?

The OpenCL GPU speed is still quite poor (although this works for a
development milestone) - do you have specific plans on improving it?

Thanks again,

Alexander
