AW: [Xen-users] os that rather uses the gpu?



How do you expect an Operating System to use the GPU to "work"? A GPU is
fast, but is limited to a very specific set of work, and cannot replace the
CPU in the general case; that's why you'll see some specific programs use a
GPU to do numeric computations (which the GPU can process), but then only
those. Using a GPU to do "work" is a program-/task-level property, and
nothing that concerns an operating system.

Betreff: [Xen-users] os that rather uses the gpu?

Does someone know a distribution/operating system, that rather uses the
GPU for "working", not the CPU? [by default]

Or this solution is still in the "beginning part"?

Thanks for any tips, link, suggestions.
