Tile generation using the GPU #19

Open Nodjo opened 2 years ago

Nodjo commented 2 years ago

Hi,

The tile generation is a very CPU intensive operation, we're usually generating tiles up to the level 24 and it typically lasts half an hour or more using all CPU cores.

I'm wondering if it would be possible to speed up the process by using somehow the GPU?

Thanks in advance
