oiaohm | 60 times faster is possible. | Oct 01 15:17 |
oiaohm | I know it sound insane but remember GPU are at a min 16 times faster than CPU. | Oct 01 15:18 |
oiaohm | For a lot of graphical operations. | Oct 01 15:18 |
schestowitz | oiaohm: in some areas | Oct 01 15:24 |
schestowitz | Not browsing X-pee-rience as a whole | Oct 01 15:24 |
schestowitz | Like if I write some lousy loop for rending images | Oct 01 15:24 |
schestowitz | And then parallelise/vectorise it | Oct 01 15:24 |
oiaohm | image rendering and layout maths can be done faster in GPU | Oct 01 15:30 |
oiaohm | Monder day html rendering has a lot of layout maths. | Oct 01 15:34 |

schestowitz | You can overlay pages | Oct 01 15:58 |
schestowitz | I think Chrome uses some interesting trick | Oct 01 15:58 |
schestowitz | So Mozilla accuses them of teaching in comparators | Oct 01 15:58 |
schestowitz | You can texturing pages/previews too | Oct 01 15:59 |
schestowitz | I hope community edition of mysql is safe with orcl http://www.zdnet.co.uk/news/it-strategy/2010/09/20/oracle-launches-mysql-55-release-candidate-40090172/ | Oct 01 16:07 |

GelatinousCube | oiaohm | image rendering and layout maths can be done faster in GPU <-- that's unlikely. | Oct 01 16:28 |
GelatinousCube | layout is far from an SIMD operation | Oct 01 16:28 |
GelatinousCube | image rendering, sure. it's what gpus *do* | Oct 01 16:29 |

schestowitz | [16:28] <GelatinousCube> layout is far from an SIMD operation | Oct 01 16:37 |
schestowitz | No, it's true | Oct 01 16:37 |
schestowitz | Physics simulations that include thing like Ray Tracing has parts in the GPU available | Oct 01 16:38 |
schestowitz | The API (say OpenGL) gives lighting assistive call | Oct 01 16:38 |
schestowitz | And if you can transcore your maths in a language that utilises that, then you can do well on just cluster of many nvidia gpus and few cpu cores | Oct 01 16:39 |
schestowitz | NASA does this | Oct 01 16:39 |
schestowitz | Or other agencie | Oct 01 16:39 |
schestowitz | Or other agencies | Oct 01 16:39 |
schestowitz | they don't care if nvidia is a blob, either | Oct 01 16:39 |
schestowitz | [16:29] <GelatinousCube> image rendering, sure. it's what gpus *do* | Oct 01 16:40 |
schestowitz | And basic geometry | Oct 01 16:40 |
schestowitz | viewpoints and all | Oct 01 16:40 |
schestowitz | like what? | Oct 01 16:42 |
schestowitz | oops. wrong tab | Oct 01 16:42 |

GelatinousCube | schestowitz: no, but html layout isn't that kind of operation. | Oct 01 16:46 |
schestowitz | I was thinking of tabs | Oct 01 17:16 |
schestowitz | Or image cache | Oct 01 17:16 |
schestowitz | When you render and rerender a page the objects are drawn separately | Oct 01 17:17 |
schestowitz | using X or whatever to do the buttons and put elements in place | Oct 01 17:17 |
schestowitz | You could treat that more like texture or scene | Oct 01 17:17 |
GelatinousCube | yes, once laid out | Oct 01 17:17 |
GelatinousCube | browsers already do this, even IE9 | Oct 01 17:17 |
schestowitz | WebGL and Microsoft's anti-std equiv do something, but for 3d | Oct 01 17:18 |
GelatinousCube | nah that's different | Oct 01 17:18 |
GelatinousCube | most browsers do 2d accel | Oct 01 17:18 |
GelatinousCube | which weirds me out a bit, it belongs in an underlying pai | Oct 01 17:18 |
GelatinousCube | api* | Oct 01 17:18 |
GelatinousCube | but oia is wrong that layout can be accel much in gpu | Oct 01 17:19 |
