Ekasit Kijsipongse commented on SPARK-3785:
-------------------------------------------
I have done something with offloading the RDD.map() function to GPU through the
use of aparapi. The performance was not satisfied due to the data copying
between host/device. Unless we can apply the series of operations on GPU before
moving the data back to host, we cannot get any performance gain.
