    For the single threaded version, they have a data hazard on the sums that could be smoothed out with a little loop unrolling and separate variables.

    But in the [threaded version](https://github.com/unum-cloud/ParallelReductions/blob/fd16d9...) they have separate slots for an accumulator but it's still in a shared vector, which most likely has the issue I described.

    Note that Kokkos uses CUDA, OpenMP and also SYCL in order to have a wide range of targets. I'd also suggest taking a look at Alpaka https://github.com/alpaka-group/alpaka which is similar in some ways.
