There was a problem with loop unroll(automatically done by compiler). So I
unrolled it manually. This kind of problem is very common with AMD's
opencl. It generally happens with for loops with smaller loop count.
Compiler doesn't unroll properly when the unroll is a bit complicated.
Another concern is that the kernel is spilling registers, which it
shouldn't. This is lowering the performance too. Most likely the P box is
spilling.
Device 1: Tahiti (AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series)
Optimal Global Work Size:1024
Benchmarking: bcrypt-opencl ("$2a$05", 32 iterations) [Blowfish OpenCL]...
DONE
Raw: 3960 c/s real, 179200 c/s virtual
