* GPU configuration. You should play around with intensity and worksize as the fastest settings will vary.
- * index - GPU index number usually starts from 0
- * intensity - Number of parallel GPU threads (nothing to do with CPU threads)
- * worksize - Number of local GPU threads (nothing to do with CPU threads)
+ * index - GPU index number usually starts from 0
+ * intensity - Number of parallel GPU threads (nothing to do with CPU threads)
+ * worksize - Number of local GPU threads (nothing to do with CPU threads)
* affine_to_cpu - This will affine the thread to a CPU. This can make a GPU miner play along nicer with a CPU miner.
* strided_index - switch memory pattern used for the scratch pad memory
- * true = use 16byte contiguous memory per thread, the next memory block has offset of intensity blocks
- * false = use a contiguous block of memory per thread
+ * 2 = chunked memory, chunk size is controlled by 'mem_chunk'
+ * required: intensity must be a multiple of worksize
+ * 1 or true = use 16byte contiguous memory per thread, the next memory block has offset of intensity blocks
+ * 0 or false = use a contiguous block of memory per thread
+ * mem_chunk - range 0 to 18: set the number of elements (16byte) per chunk
+ * this value is only used if 'strided_index' == 2
+ * element count is computed with the equation: 2 to the power of 'mem_chunk' e.g. 4 means a chunk of 16 elements(256byte)
+ * comp_mode - Compatibility enable/disable the automatic guard around compute kernel which allows
+ * to use a intensity which is not the multiple of the worksize.
+ * If you set false and the intensity is not multiple of the worksize the miner can crash:
+ * in this case set the intensity to a multiple of the worksize or activate comp_mode.
