Abstract
A graphics processing apparatus includes graphics processors connected by a network connection, where the graphics processors pass compressed data. A first graphics processor stores data blocks as compressed data in a memory. The compressed data has data blocks of variable size, where a size of a block of compressed data depends on a compression ratio of the block of compressed data. A second graphics processor also stores data blocks as compressed data. The first graphics processor concatenates a variable number of blocks of compressed data into a packet of fixed size to send to the second graphics processor. The packet has a variable number of blocks of compressed data depending on the compression ratios of the multiple blocks of compressed data.
