In this paper we present a new, modularly extensible program that uses OpenCL to massively parallelize the computation, allowing a standard desktop PC to work with appropriate accuracy and yield reliable results within minutes. We provide numerical stability studies of over a huge parameter range and comparisons of our numerical results to other techniques.
