> You could say that the intersecting area in the ven diagram of "Has to run on CPU" and "Can use vector instructions" is small.
People are forgetting the "Could run on a GPU but I don't know how" factor. There's tons of Situations where GPU Offloading would be fast or more energy efficient but importing all the libraries, dealing with drivers etc. really is not worth the effort, whereas doing it on a CPU is really just a simple include away.
