Charlie Fenton	e2b2370e9d	client: optionally detect GPUs via a child process, for dual_GPU laptops. Some dual-GPU laptops (e.g., Macbook Pro) don't power down the more powerful GPU until all applications which used them exit. To save battery life, the client launches a second instance of the client as a child process to detect and get info about the GPUs. The child process writes the info to a temp file which our main client then reads. This option is enabled at compile time by defining USE_CHILD_PROCESS_TO_DETECT_GPUS as non-zero in gpu_detect.cpp	2013-06-25 04:31:34 -07:00
Rom Walton	516eff60b0	- client: Hook up the XML portion of the Intel GPU detection code so the server scheduler knows about it. - client: Print out the peak flops for the Intel GPU, the regular OpenCL descriptions do not show peak flops.	2013-03-04 15:30:03 +01:00
