Hello. I work with high resolution projections (32 mp) and reconstuction
takes some longstanding time. At the same time there are two video cards in
my computer, but uses only one. I wonder if i can use two video cards to
reduce reconstruction time.
What i tried to do in short:

- execute this script on newest rtk revisiion
for ($i in $(grep -nrl "cuCtxSetCurrent" utilities/ITKCudaCommon/*))
    echo "!$i"
    p="_"
    grep -vE "(cuCtxSetCurrent)" $i > $i$p
    mv $i$p $i
done
i.e. remove all lines where happens setting of video card context

- in rtkfdk.cxx by using posix threads create two threads, where i set
contexts through cuCtxSetCurrent(0) and cuCtxSetCurrentset(1)
correspondingly and wait for signals;
- in main thread for each working thread it created separated graphs, with
reader, ddf, pssf, constant   (which is splitted by two, i.e. dimension[1]
/= 2; origin+= ), fdk.
- then fdk pointers put to shared data, so working threads can use them.
After all signal is emmited  and fdk->update() is called at working threads
- since job is done, i copy two resulted subvolumes to one and save.

it works and reconstuction time is reduced for about 1.5 times! However, if
i run it a lot of times, finally it crashes with

It seems that itk classes are not reenterable, Is there way to fix it ? Or
is there another way to make several video cards using for reconstuction in
parallel ?

Thanks.
