QuoteThe October 2009 version of Cg 2.2 includes these improvements:

    * Support for compiler options in CgFX compile statements
    * Enhanced performance when running on multicore CPUs
    * Selecting the "latest" profile is now deferred until an effect is validated
    * Better memory behavior when a program is repeatedly recompiled

See the release notes for a complete list of changes.

    * "Latest" compiling option to easily leverage the latest GPU capabilities and performance
    * Support for geometry programs with DirectX10 and GLSL translation profiles
    * Support for pack_matrix() pragma improves HLSL compatibility
    * Fifteen new APIs for new features and added flexibility
