Abstract

A method renders frames while processing workload slices at a rate defined by a first slice-to-frame ratio. The first slice to frame ratio defines a first rate at which the workload slices are assigned to the frames. The method determines whether to adjust the first slice-to-frame ratio based on the rendering of the frames and the processing of the workload slices. When it is determined that the first slice-to-frame should be adjusted, the method adjusts the first slice-to-frame ratio to a second slice-to-frame ratio and renders upcoming frames while processing upcoming workload slices at a second rate defined by the second slice-to-frame ratio. When it is determined that the first slice-to-frame should not be adjusted, the method renders upcoming frames while processing upcoming workload slices at the first rate defined by the first slice-to-frame ratio.
