Cool open-source project that introduces a new programming model for decoupling compute and memory for NVIDIA GPUs that supports asynchronous memory operations (e.g., Hopper). 12% perf improvement over SOTA and 67% less kernel code.

67% less kernel code is the more interesting number here — Hopper's async capabilities have been underutilized largely because the programming model is painful. Curious how it handles cases where compute and memory phases aren't cleanly separable.

This seems like a better version of CUDA, for Hopper GPUs?
