My understanding is that pcie devices incur a very high latency for getting data to and from them, due to the pcie device itself and setting up a dma descriptor. Sadly this article doesn't look into that.

Can someone comment on what sort of latency would be involved in something like this? For example, latency to send to pcie device, latency to react to and manipulate the data in a warp(Nvidia?), and latency to send the data back to the host system?
