I'm running with cuda:operations=8192 and filter:runlength=8192 now.

the current rate is an average rate so it approaches the current rate
in infinity (i.e. an hour). this will be fixed soon.
you could try --device cuda:threads=512 if your GPU has enough registers,
but last time i tried this, i got no improvement.

yes. my gtx260 runs at 691 mhz. it is simple to compute test values.
use
--work increment
to use the same start values on every run, then
with all other parameters the same, you should always get the same output.
This way you should be able to verify the correctness of the computation.
Write the data to a file or use
--consume print:results=X
where X is the number of chains you are generating, normally "print" only 
displays
the first 16.
to fuel to competition, my GTX260 with 216 cores does 162.54 chains/s at 691mhz,
but since it is headless i do not have to care for responsiveness.

go ahead.
the whole purpose of the project is education.
(... and being in the newspapers :-)
also take a look at the CommandLine page in the trac which should clarify some 
things.
