And then lastly was looking at the Vulkan compute performance with NVK compared to the NVIDIA official Linux driver....
For VkFFT, the NVIDIA Linux driver stack remained faster and the official NVIDIA Linux driver could handle some benchmark test cases that failed to run currently on NVK.
With the synthetic vkpeak benchmark, there were some Vulkan test cases like fp16-vec4 where NVK was actually able to outperform the official NVIDIA Vulkan driver.
