Running bench_cg. py from the examples, gives me this error:

```

Research direction

Start by running examples/bench_cg.py with the Python and ArrayFire versions reported in the issue, then inspect the failing operation at line 144 and the NVRTC error from src/backend/cuda/jit.cpp:298. Determine why the benchmark cannot compile this operation in the reported CUDA environment; done means the benchmark completes its tests without the NVRTC compilation error.
