Finally. Something interesting. You have qutie the interesting way of structuring your kernels for CryptoNight. And I must say - the number of waves in flight you've managed by doing so is hot.

Thanks, Sir.

Yes, the scheduling is very unorthodox, it uses 2 command queues which are started with an defined time offset. Still searching for an explanation why this faster than one larger queue. The scheduler does get the same work, but for some reason it likes it better that way. Probably very Vega specific but did not yet try it on different cards.

Don't you want to try with Dagger-Hashimoto?
Cryptonight already has good multithreaded miner - xmr-stak-amd and your miner doesn't outperform it ...

Yeah, xmr-stak-amd - the miner which stole my code, violating its MIT license, and then had the balls to put a fee in it for himself.

and its still slower than sgminer Cheesy
why dont you pay him back and release his miner without fee?
