oal. (Xinerama setup is also possible, but GL acceleration will be limited to abilities of the weakest card). But honestly I don't get why you need this: if you have a powerful GPU and it is not a laptop, where power consumption is critical, why just don't use that card? Most cards h

asks. Of course, most OpenCL/CUDA apps are synchronous and will not be able to run properly on heterogeneous GPGPU setup. So probably your best option will be to use one card solely for GPGPU computing, while another one for rendering and output. Another interesting application is that some codecs (e.g. x264) allow to use OpenCL, though from tests I saw it still gives worse results then vdpau-based decoding.

fied CFLAGS (unsupported) www-client/firefox:custom-optimization - Fine-tune custom compiler optimizations (-Os, -O0, -O1, -O2, -O3) So custom-optimization will only get -O[0123s] option from your CFLAGS, if you need another options, use custom-cflags.

ove I prefer container solutions like LXC over VM for security: they give approximately the same level of protection as VM, but resources cost is much lower. Of course it is still possible to break any container through L3 cache or some kernel bugs, so for really tight security independent hardware and OS must be used.
