--- Comment #18 from Marek Olšák <maraeo at gmail.com> ---
A fast GPU + slow GPU is also a bad idea. There is the risk of improper load
balancing resulting in the performance being the same or slightly above the
slow GPU. Or if it's done badly, it can be well below the slow GPU.

You are also completely missing the main use case for llvmpipe: to have desktop
compositing if an OpenGL driver isn't installed or doesn't exist. Nobody cares
about supercomputers.
