I'm a rendering engineer and have used this term frequently. It's actually a very common technique in rendering to not always be able to easily fill in the gaps, that we frequently deliberately introduce an extra frame of latency, so that the GPU is rendering jobs for the latter half of rendering passes for frame N+1 and the early half of rendering passes of frame N+2 while frame N is visible. This still means that a frame takes the same total GPU time to render, but means that the gaps between jobs on a single frame can be usefully filled with something else from the other. |
