GPU can perform more operations than CPU, but GPU is slower than CPU, not faster.

- greiskul 9y agoYes, throughput vs latency is a very important distinction. An airplane is always faster then a train, but if what you are measuring is throughput, a train can be more performant. It depends on the context, but that's fine. There is no such thing as a made-up word if the word has a meaning, and is regularly used by a group of people.
- Angostura 9y agoSo is the GPU more or less 'performant?' That's right - the CPU is faster at completing the job, though the GPU executes instructions more quickly.
