CSC/OpenCL
v2 v3 4 4 This [/wiki/CSC CSC] module takes advantage [http://www.khronos.org/opencl/ OpenCL] backends to parallelize the conversion process and speed things up. 5 5 Backends are available for many types of {{{GPU}}}s and {{{CPU}}}s. 6 7 The performance of the OpenCL backends vary widely, generally speaking {{{GPU}}}s have the edge over {{{CPU}}}s despite the added cost of having to transfer the data to and from the {{{GPU}}}. More importantly, whilst the {{{GPU}}} is busy doing CSC, the {{{CPU}}} is free for other tasks, which reduces overall system load and latency. 6 8 }}} 7 9
