### Scratchpad Indexing ### Scratchpad Indexing
The layout of the hash scratchpad memory can be changed for each GPU with the option `strided_index` in `amd.txt`. The layout of the hash scratchpad memory can be changed for each GPU with the option `strided_index` in `amd.txt`.
Try to change the value from the default `false` to `true`. Try to change the value from the default `true` to `false`.
