METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROFILE-GUIDED GRAPHICS PROCESSING OPTIMIZATIONS

摘要

An apparatus and method for collecting and using profile data during graphics processing. For example, one embodiment of an apparatus comprises: a graphics processor to process graphics commands responsive to execution of an application; and profile storage to store graphics execution profile data associated with one or more graphics workloads; and a profile manager to read the profile data upon detecting one of the graphics workloads during execution of the application and to configure the graphics processor in accordance with the profile data.
