Too bad this doesn't actually run JavaScript on the GPU.

This gives computational access of the GPU to JavaScript.

Even that is a very generous description. The guy hand-coded a lot of boilerplate to expose one CUDA kernel to JavaScript.

It would be frickin' awesome if GPU access became standard for Javascript through a standard API (OpenCL?). A COMPLETE Flash-killer.
