 Thanks, I will, if I ever need to for my actual use case. Other than an 
occasional stitched panorama, I'm usually dealing with 16MP images, and so far 
haven't encountered any tiling issues with those (even when testing with the 
equalizer, which I rarely use for general purposes). This is another example of 
how simplistic benchmark numbers can be misleading: even if a person looking at 
them allowed for the fact that the test image was larger, and hence slower, 
than their own use case, they might very well assume a linear relationship, 
when the reality about tripping a threshold or not.

It also seems like if you're comparing the cards to a particular CPU (i7 or 
what have you), you should really be using that CPU for the card tests, too...
