I have no immediate plan to work on GPU support, but I am planning to work on (CPU) vectorization in the near future for bitset data structures. However, if someone was interested in initiating GPU support, I'd be glad to collaborate.

I am using EWAH bitsets with a great success. Investigating the topic I think GPU could dramatically increase the performance. Right now there is no open-source implementation that could leverage GPU. Probably I can invest some time for GPU support. For now I am elaborating with whitepapers around EWAH implemention.

I agree on the need, and if you get started, get in touch with me.
