GPU vs CPU performance for common algorithms

I'm interested to know if any common algorithms (sorting, searching, graphs, etc.) have been ported to OpenCL (or any GPU language), and how the performance compares to the same algorithm executed by the CPU. I'm specifically interested in the results (numbers).

Thanks!

Have a look at thrust:

Thrust is a CUDA library of parallel algorithms with an interface resembling the C++ Standard Template Library (STL). Thrust provides a flexible high-level interface for GPU programming that greatly enhances developer productivity.
