This has been in the works for a while. I'll be distributing some workunits with 4-bit complex samples. They'll be twice the size of the current 2-bit workunits, but will give us 46% reduction in noise power.

It's possible that some of the app versions date from before the 4-bit quantization code existed in the client (but I don't think so). If things are going to break it should be obvious pretty quickly.

The change should occur this afternoon.
