What? Last time I checked, OpenBLAS (and GotoBLAS2) used OpenMP, not the GCD on Mac. Since OpenMP compiles to pthreads, it should not do this (pure POSIX). Accelerate uses the GCD yes, but it's hardly any better than ATLAS. If OpenBLAS now uses the GCD on Mac someone in China should be flogged. It is sad to hear about stability issues with OpenBLAS, it's predecessor GotoBLAS2 was rock solid.
