A system and method for efficiently performing graphics operations on a video game/application hosting service. One embodiment of a system comprises: an application/game server comprising a central processing unit and a graphics processing unit generating a series of video frames; a buffer management logic to manage the series of video frames; a shared buffer managed by the buffer management logic to store the video frames generated; wherein the buffer management logic continually monitors a signal indicating when a video display or video compression unit is ready to receive a next video frame and, responsive to detecting that the display or video compression unit is about to be ready, the buffer management logic to transfer the most recently completed from the shared buffer to a back buffer; and responsive to detecting the signal, the buffer management logic transferring the video frame from the back buffer to a front buffer.
