which operations require GPU?

Hi Thomas,
there you can see the HW usage in each process step:

Alignment:
Feature detection (CPU, RAM, Storage only)
Matching (CPU, RAM, Storage only)
Aligning Images (CPU, RAM, Storage only)
Processing (CPU, RAM, Storage only)

Reconstruction:
Depth map calculation (Storage, RAM, GPU - CUDA, Vram only)
Decompose for Large scene reconstruction
Depth map Grouping (CPU, RAM, Storage only)
Model creation / Meshing (CPU, RAM, Storage only)
Meshing (CPU, RAM, Storage only)

UV unwrap (CPU, Storage, RAM only)

Texture reprojection (CPU, Storage, RAM only)

Texturing:
Model preprocessing (Storage, RAM, light CPU, GPU - CUDA, Vram only)
Model Texturing (heavy CPU, Storage, RAM only)
