OpenCL benchmark?

[MAA]

Hello,

You have any plans to develop a OpenCL benchmark?

[Fiery]

We do have plans about a GPGPU benchmark based on OpenCL.  However, our efforts on the benchmarks development are slowed down and somehow blocked as well by the improper quality of OpenCL compilers.  Therefore, we have to delay the release of the existing benchmarks until the compilers get more mature.  Not mentioning names, but 2 out of the 3 major GPU manufacturers have really poor OpenCL compilers, not being able to properly compile our benchmark code.  We've notified both companies in question, so they know about the issues, and they promised things will slowly improve in the upcoming months. So we expect to roll out our OpenCL GPGPU benchmarks before the end of the year.

 

Regards,

Fiery
