Thank you, Ross, that is a big help.

Hi Ryan,

It varies but is about 8% performance regression on average. If you have 980s you have to use cuda 6.5 so it's probably simplest on a shared resource to just install cuda 6.5 and not worry about the performance regression.

All the best
Ross

Hi all,

I've seen online and on this mailing list to use CUDA 5.0 instead of
6.5 for performance reasons. What I've not seen is anything more
specific about what the performance penalty might be. I think that it
is supposed to be minor (though I have a preference for running with
whatever is fastest if it's that little work to do it).

Thanks!
