OpenCL/gpu and umat

I've been reading a bit about OpenCL support in opencv 3, and that all i need is to use a UMat instead of a regular Mat.

Is that all that i need, assuming my system supports opencl? Would be there be a big speed increase? I'd be very interested in that.

Anyone tried this on a recent mac system, do they all support OpenCL ?

Thanks, Alef

Also: if i use Umat but there is no OpenCL/GPU support, will it fall back to regular CPU ?
