Subject: Multiple GFX Cards helpful for GUI?
From: Micke Teeling <micke.teeling@gmail.com>

Hey all,
I'm working on a project where I have a lot of different elements created
with GPU-intense effects such as Videocopilot Element and optical flares.
It's working out pretty good, but at "the top" of my comp tree, in my main
comp, the AE GUI behaves really sluggish. A click to select a layer can
take a second or two. If I step down in the nested comps the GUI is fine,
so my guess is that all GPU-effects sort of hogs the GFX card.

Does anybody know if it would help GUI rendering to add in another
GFX-card? I'm guessing some effects might render faster, but I'm only
really interested in having the AE GUI snappiness back.

Thanks!
Micke
