I've actually used it a lot. Some more work is required, but the
speedup is very impressive.
About two years ago I compared a proprietary solution claiming to be
very fast to ECJ + Cuda in terms of speed.
Without much optimization and with a stock GTX295 GPU, ECJ was nearly
two magnitudes faster. The way GPUs
are moving, the difference is probably even greater today.
