The speed on maxwell and pascal is roughly equal, which should not be the case. It seems that on pascal some quite trivial kernels take far longer than they should.
A cause for this might be that on pascal not all of a shared memory object is pre-fetched when it is accessed. This may cause significant slowdown in incremental accesses, i.e. in such cases arrays should be pre-fetched by calling
