A system and a corresponding method of leveraging GPU resources to enhance performance of the interact-able content browsing (ICB) service are to utilize the computation capacity of the GPU of the graphics card to share the computation load originally taken by the CPU. The raw images depicted by the browser application program executed in the server can be directly retrieved from the VRAM of the graphics card by the encoder inside the GPU to be further encoded and streamed before being forwarded directly to distant clients. Thereby, work load and bus bandwidth occupation on the CPU can be greatly reduced, the number of clients that can be served simultaneously by a single server can be increased, and the related power consumption can be substantially reduced. |
