Quote:Example of the differences
To understand better, consider the following analogy. The CPU is like a head chef in a large restaurant who has to make sure hundreds of burgers get flipped. Even if the head chef can do it personally, it’s not the best use of time. All kitchen operations may halt or slow down while the head chef is completing this simple but time-consuming task. To avoid this, the head chef can use junior assistants who flip several burgers in parallel. The GPU is more like a junior assistant with ten hands who can flip 100 burgers in 10 seconds.
