My server is a 3-GPU system. When running with VGL, I want to do in parallel: GPU 1 (:0.1) render readback (Equalizer) GPU 2 (:0.2) render readback (Equalizer) GPU 0 (node:10.0) render composite (on :0.0 redirected by VGL ) readback (VGL) send to remote When running without VGL, I want: GPU 0 (:0.0) render readback (Equalizer) GPU 1 (:0.1) render readback (Equalizer) GPU 2 (:0.2) render readback (Equalizer) X11 tunnel (node:10.0) composite to remote (Equalizer) The second config is currently also used when running under VGL, which then does: GPU 0 (:0.0) render readback (Equalizer) GPU 1 (:0.1) render readback (Equalizer) GPU 2 (:0.2) render readback (Equalizer) GPU 0 (node:10.0) composite (on :0.0 redirected by VGL ) readback (VGL) send to remote ... which is where your extra (Eq) readback is.
