[magick-users] IM on GPUs?

> is someone working on ideas how IM could use the capabilities of GPUs?

No specific work has been done in this area.  Image-processing lends itself
to parallization so there is undoubtedly copious opportunities for speed-ups
under a GPU.  ImageMagick supports cache views which permit safe simultaneous
access to the pixels of an image so one could perform, for example, multiple
operations in parallel on the GPU without much programming effort.
