Linux 367.44 driver - performance boost over 346.96

[Nicolas_orleans]

Hello,

If, like me, you were still on 346.96 because 361.x and 364.x from nvidia website did not play along well with your kernel/X server, or yielded a performance loss on core 21 (2-7% in TPF), you could consider upgrading to 367.44 :
- Install went flawlessly on Ubuntu 14.04 / kernel 3.13.93, except for 32-bits compatibility libraries, but that shall not impact FAH
- No GUI corruption during install and since install yesterday
- For core 21, with limited testing, TPF is around 1-3 % shorter on GTX 980 Ti and GTX 770, and 5% shorter on GTX 750 Ti. Compared to 346.96, I observed a 1-2 degrees celsius increase on cards which frequencies were not limited by temperature (750 Ti and Hybrid 980 Ti)
- For core 18, only one WU tested on GTX 980 Ti, but 13% shorter than my records for this project. And we know 346.96 was the best for core 21, but not for core 18 compared to other drivers.
- I haven't seen core 17 units for a while with beta flag, not sure if there are still around in full fah.

So, if no stability issues / no surprises with core 17, I would say this driver could become the new reference for mixed maxwell/keplers linux setups.

Would be interesting to know what this driver does with Pascal (especially, was the linux OC of Pascals backported from 370.x to this driver, since earlier version of 367 branch were reported not to have this OC feature)
