<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">2. The results produced by the kernel are still somewhat off. It could be that I missed a subtle detail and the kernels still do not conform to the hardware's execution model. I'm very familar with Intel's hardware and these kernels were
originally designed for 32/64 wide execution.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">However, the bigger issue is that running on Haswell (HD 4600, I think) the kernel produces results that are very off (while the very same source gives correct results on other
platforms). I've not much time to dig deeper, but I thought I'd drop a mail maybe somebody is interested in helping out with tips or even tracking down where the issue is.<o:p></o:p></p>
