I think it's about 5.6 Tflops. Wow, 3.75 Tflops on Hawaii is very good indeed; I agree this is not something that clBLAS would beat by a wide-margin if at all.

Judging by this page, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_AMD_graphics_processin..., Fiji has more than 8 TFLOPS.

Yep, CLBlast. My old kernels are from the pre-CLBlast era. Now they are deprecated.

Ah, you're right; 5.6 Gflops is for Hawaii. That's doubly impressive. I'll make sure to try your kernel then. Thank you!

Actually, the man who writes those amazing kernels is Cedric Nugteren. I call HIS kernels.
