science application + opencl/rocm + AMD GPU?
Hi science team,
I'd like to request the team for sharing some experience on this topic:
"scientific application + opencl/rocm + AMD GPU". Any experience will
be very helpful to me in terms of the being-investigated ROCm
integration[1] to Debian.
I'd like to ask you the following questions:
1. how's everything going without the amdgpu-pro[2] driver, especially
the opencl/rocm programs? Most importantly, can OpenCL work without
any non-free component?
2. how does the consumer-grade AMD gpu perform in terms of scientific
computing or other opencl/rocm applications?
3. do you think AMD GPU can be a practical alternative to Nvidia/CUDA
in at least a few applications?
