Huhu,
as Ross pointed out before, there is a performance regression in CUDA
4.1 compilers (cf. mail below). On the NVIDIA website, in the meanwhile,
CUDA Toolkit & SDK are available in version 4.2.9:
http://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads
Unfortunately, I cannot find a changelog. Does anyone know for sure if
the discussed issue was resolved with this 4.2.9 release?
Thanks,
Jan-Philip
