Hi,

 

I'm currently in the process of making available a new Windows VM for FME Form users within our organisation. Our IT guys anticipated also using this machine for ArcGIS powerusers; but that's not preferred by the application manager team.

As such it has some lovely CUDA GPU capacity assigned. Which is a bit of a waste if we don't use it.

 

Can FME use CUDA for certain work? Are there plans for using CUDA?



If there is no clear case for retaining the GPU, i intend to give it back to the resource pool. There is no guarentee I can ask it back: it is a finite resource, first come first serve.

Hey @ronaldhummelink 

At the moment, FME does not use CUDA for GPU-based processing. The UI framework used in FME Form doesn’t have native CUDA support.

We currently have no plan to integrate CUDA for enhanced GPU and parallel processing. However, if you believe this would be beneficial, we encourage you to submit an idea for consideration.

Hope this helps!

Emma
