Didn't dhyatt and some others at Apple investigate something along these lines in the context of OpenCL and the new 'Grand Central Dispatch' stuff? As I recall, they didn't experience a significant improvement for a variety of reasons, though I think they were trying to parallelize rendering of a single document, not rendering different documents on different threads. -Brent _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev
