Is it worth looking into using GPU in generating CAM toolpaths? Currently I don't have any long computing times in CAM.

If you have simple CAM tasks and a fast computer, the differences may be neglectible. But for more complicated simulations, the differences may be even 20 minutes (CPU) vs. 10 seconds (GPU) - see the Czech tip:

That's a huge difference, thanks. I am probably machining much simpler models.
