I've got a Radeon HD7950 running with a recent catalyst driver.

Here are my setting:

[opencl_init] opencl: 1
[opencl_init] opencl_library: ''
[opencl_init] opencl_memory_requirement: 768
[opencl_init] opencl_memory_headroom: 300
[opencl_init] opencl_device_priority: '!GeForce 
GTS450,*/!Tahiti,*/Tahiti,*/Tahiti,*'
[opencl_init] opencl_size_roundup: 16
[opencl_init] opencl_async_pixelpipe: 1
[opencl_init] opencl_synch_cache: 0
[opencl_init] opencl_number_event_handles: 25
[opencl_init] opencl_micro_nap: 0
[opencl_init] opencl_use_pinned_memory: 1
[opencl_init] opencl_use_cpu_devices: 0
[opencl_init] opencl_avoid_atomics: 0
[opencl_init] opencl_omit_whitebalance: 0

You may want to check if opencl_use_pinned_memory makes a difference 
when exporting huge images (cases where tiling plays a role). On my 
system the effect was huge (like 3 to 4 times faster export).
