Would it be possible for an OpenCL/CUDA/DirectCompute powered build of foldit?

Right now it's very CPU intensive and a parallel computation back-end would surely help the lag.

I second this idea - access to more cores always means more speed.

Bump.
Maybe contact to Stanford and borrow some Folding@home GPU code?
