Filippo,

I would be very grateful if you could send me the files to swap! I think you 
are probably right that it is a curiosity exercise but I’d like to take a whack 
at it. There might be room in our budget to go for a card like the GTC 1080 
down the road, which looks very cool indeed.

Best regards,
Gunnar
