nona, Hugin's stitcher, already uses the GPU if instructed to do so.  Whether 
it is faster or not depends on what type of GPU is pitched against what type 
of CPU.  Kay already pointed you in the right direction.

You can use the GPU from the command line with the -g switch or activate the 
feature in the preferences of the GUI.  It is marked as experimental because 
some projections are not supported yet, and there are some small issues such 
as the output size being always a multiple of 8.

Note that nona will fall back to CPU stitching if the projection is not yet 
supported in the GPU code.

You can find what quirks and bugs affect nona by looking at bug reports tagged 
nona in the tracker [0].  There is also more specific tagging (GPU).  Tagging 
may be incomplete since the reports have been migrated only a couple of weeks 
ago, but there is also a full-search option.  And if you see a feature that is 
missing, or if you hit a bug, feel free to file a report there.
