What are GPUs bad at?
I understand that GPUs are generally used to do LOTS of calculations in parallel. I understand why we would want to parallelize processes in order to speed things up. However, GPUs aren't always better than CPUs, as far as I know. What kinds of tasks are GPUs bad at? When would we prefer CPU over GPU for processing?
