Learning through reading Common.mk (CUDA)

# Compilers
CXX        := g++ -fPIC

http://www.fpx.de/fp/Software/tcl-c++/tcl-c++.html
Shared Library may be mapped into memory at different locations each time it is loaded, addresses within the library would be variable, therefore, all addresses inside the library are stored zero-based, relative to the beginning of the library. A register is then set aside to contain that address, so that all references in the library can be easily computed at runtime.

To compile a file for position-independence, you have to add custom switches to the compiler's command line. For example, gcc/egcs uses the `-fPIC switch.

Page locked memory allocation

To quantify the communication bandwidth difference on your system between paged-locked and non-page-locked memory, one can run the bandwidthTest program that comes with the CUDA sdk.
