I've worked with CUDA before (and hit issues with large datasets, like you've mentioned). While HSA is presumably going to make things a lot easier, I'm curious about AMD's partnership with Oracle - how much of a performance hit do you reckon we'll see if Java is implemented? And wouldn't it have been easier to go with something like Python that also supports multithreading and (to the best of my limited knowledge) has better scientific libraries?
- nitrogen 13y agoIt's likely their implementation of Java will add constructs to aid parallelization, but Java already has very robust threading support with no GIL.
- sn0v 13y agoYeah perhaps I could have worded my comment better. I meant Python (just like Java) supports parallelization as well, plus it seems to have better scientific libraries.
