Weren't you provided with a link some months ago (or perhaps last year) to where you can find many original sources of GPU-related work which you can study?
Wasn't it suggested to you that should you (or anyone else, for that matter) choose to dispute results obtained by particular researchers, it should better be done by referencing the work and showing why quoted results are misleading, downright wrong etc.?
And since you are apparently calling crap all 100x and higher speedups, it's reasonable to ask if you have any proof wrt every piece of published research with such results. I don't think you have any though.
