Major. Hype.
I think Dcompute is a great (although often unused) d feature,
and I'm over the moon that work on a vulkan backend is starting.
It's unfortunate that opencl spirv support is an extension and
it's
not universally supported, but with vulkan requiring SPIRV and
GPGPU
in the spec one could write a program that supports windows, mac,
and linux, and runs on all the major gpu vendors.
Quang Ha. I wish you good luck and strong coffee.
You're going to need both :)
