why will we pack more argon2 per gpu using both types of memory?
I'm using only very small portions of private memory.
BTW in my vectorized kernels shuffling between two groups of argon
rounds takes very long time so I did something that I grouped kernel
instances to 4 and I'm interleaving data to this local memory and I
can avoid shuffling
but in my laptop I can gain 3k c/s for LWS=8 so no speedup. (4k is in
bleeding-jumbo branch)
but I think this is not what you mean here
I uploaded this to branch interleaving4 (argon2d only)
I updated vector8 branch and created vector16 some time ago
