No luck improving upon your TITAN X result in this way yet, but I'll
post what was tried anyway.

I ran this script:

[solar@...er run]$ cat try.sh 
#!/bin/sh

for LWS in `seq 1 128`; do
        GWS=$[$LWS * 24]
        while [ $GWS -lt 1536 ]; do
                GWS=$[$GWS * 2]
        done
        echo $LWS $GWS
        export LWS GWS
        ./john -test -format=argon2d-opencl -dev=4 -v=4
done

like this:

[solar@...er run]$ ./try.sh | tee -a try4.log

Then analyzed the log like this:

[solar@...er run]$ fgrep Many try4.log | sort -k3 -rn | head
Many salts:     8045 c/s real, 7969 c/s virtual
Many salts:     7831 c/s real, 7763 c/s virtual
Many salts:     7747 c/s real, 7680 c/s virtual
Many salts:     7733 c/s real, 7733 c/s virtual
Many salts:     7714 c/s real, 7714 c/s virtual
Many salts:     7712 c/s real, 7779 c/s virtual
Many salts:     7698 c/s real, 7698 c/s virtual
Many salts:     7680 c/s real, 7680 c/s virtual
Many salts:     7663 c/s real, 7663 c/s virtual
Many salts:     7663 c/s real, 7596 c/s virtual

The top two entries are:

[solar@...er run]$ grep -B6 'Many .*8045' try4.log 
88 2112
Benchmarking: argon2d-opencl [Blake2 OpenCL]... 
memory per hash : 1.50 MB

Many salts:     8045 c/s real, 7969 c/s virtual
[solar@...er run]$ grep -B6 'Many .*7831' try4.log 
93 2232
Benchmarking: argon2d-opencl [Blake2 OpenCL]...

The next few are for nearby LWS values as well.
