The graph coloring splits into serialized batches of independent work, but this is the DX GPU way of doing stuff, ZERO pipelining (still huge idle gaps). Would be far better to split into pipelined (overlapped) batches -> do(A) do(B) wait(A) do(C) wait(B) do(D) wait(C) ...
The best presentation I have seen on this was research.activision.com/publications/2… also available on GDCVault
