Hello,

Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately I can't suspend the applications, since they are doing some network communication which is necessary.

Best regards,

Hey,

Well, you can look into GPU schedulers [1] but I would guess that a simpler form of synchronisation could fix that in the driver.

As long as you are not using userspace command submission, you should be able to block command submission of the applications that are not in the foreground.

On the other hand, if the GUI and the networking share the same thread, the GUI may block thus blocking networking. It may also spin a lot, waiting for the result of an operation. The best solution would be to tell the application to stop sending commands, but ... that may not be possible.

Good luck,

Martin
