You can send draw commands without making that the fundamental underlying operating model. GPUs are highly complex and performance under generic wrappers.

- uecker 3y agoNo, he is correct. The GPU on the other side of the PCI is a remote computer.
- TylerE 3y agoHuge difference over operating over a PCI bus with gargantuan bandwidth and near zero latency, and working over random network connections.
- uecker 3y agoCertainly a huge difference, but if you want good performance you need to treat this as a remote buffer management problem in both cases.
- TylerE 3y agoSorry, but I can’t take the suggestion that the PCI bus and the internet should be treated the same seriously. You’re telling 4 or 5 orders of magnitude difference. Maybe more on some specs. It’s like saying you should use the same file access algorithms for a RAM disk and punch cards. No you shouldn’t!
- uecker 3y agoYou need to compare to memory on the main board.
