Subject: Re: Clustering using OpenCL & MPI
I have asked something along these lines in the past, and yes you are right in thinking that you can compute OpenCL using CUDA but I'm sure I was told (a while back) that if I wanted to compute mixing both CUDA and CPU cores as a while this itself would not be possible but there is nothing stopping you fire up a process that uses the CPU cores on one process and the GPU cores on another.
Further more when launching CPU instances you would use say 4 if it was a quad core processor, but with the CUDA or OpenCL type one whole chip or chard would just be one instance..
That's IF I understood correctly what I was told and I would wait a little while for better clarification on the matter..

Subject: [john-users] Clustering using OpenCL & MPI
Hi
I'm fairly new to JtR and one thing I couldn't quite figure out reading the various Wiki articles is if it is possible to cluster Linux instances running JtR utilizing OpenCL while coordinating through MPI?
Regards,
Oliver
