gollark: It generalizes fine to other tasks, as long as you precompute them utterly and can save them.
gollark: There's a startup experimenting with using on-chip flash to store glxgears frames and just streaming them to the display as needed, to avoid the overhead of having to actually compute it.
gollark: They have for a while had glxgears acceleration instructions in the shader processors, but Intel's full acceleration approach may prove better.
gollark: Apparently Intel's upcoming gaming GPUs have dedicated glxgears hardware for generating the rotating gear meshes.
