This is a saddle point. I would suggest using derivative operators to spot such discontinuities. In fact, Haralick presents a broad overview of these methods in his Topographic Primal Sketch.

The use of approximate Facet model would give you a speed boost. I used them for edge detection mathworks file exchange - Simple Edge Detection Using Classical Haralick Method.

There is also one implementation available here.

Even though this question and the topic is rather old, I would like to update that, the method presented in the following work contains no branching and is quite suitable for the shader:
