Hello all, I have a large (~500 MB) lookup table loaded as a numpy array for an embarrassingly parallel transport calculation. This is too large for constant memory, but I can load it into global memory, permitting all threads access to any element required. However each thread must grab a set of 4 float values at every transport step. I eventually want to move to accessing 9 such sets (36 floats) at each step to do some table interpolation. Are there any good PyOpenCL examples putting such a read-only table into image memory? I’m not sure how much performance gain moving to image mem there would be anyways. Anyone have a suggestion?

Used your recommendations on how to install OpenCL <https://wiki.tiker.net/OpenCLHowTo> and compile PyOpenCL from source <https://wiki.tiker.net/PyOpenCL/Installation/Linux> in a Python3.5 virtualenv, using the reference ICD loader ocl-icd-libopencl1, nvidia ICD nvidia-opencl-icd-387, and opencl-headers packages.

Also tried setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH, didn't work. Any ideas? -- CH
