Subject: Re: bitslice DES on GPU

I am not sure you can do that at run time. Reason is that the binary is
being "transferred" to the GPU at the moment you call clCreateKernel(). Any
change in the binary would not have any effect unless you release the
kernel and create it again (which would involve a memory transfer again).
But that of course involves the transfer costs.
