Efficient hybrid-graphics pipeline

A method, comprising:

• sending, by circuitry of a first processing node, a first task to a second processing node to render a first video frame;
• receiving, by the first processing node, a first indication that specifies the second processing node has generated rendered data corresponding to the first video frame;
• and
• sending, by the first processing node, a second task to the processing node to render a second video frame prior to initiating a present operation that comprises sending, to a display controller, rendered data corresponding to the first video frame.

A computing system comprising:

• a first processing node comprising circuitry configured to execute tasks;
• and
• a second processing node comprising circuitry configured to execute tasks;
• and
• wherein the first processing node comprises:
• circuitry configured to:
• send a first task to the second processing node to render a first video frame;
• receive a first indication that specifies the second processing node has generated rendered data corresponding to the first video frame;
• and
• send a second task to the second processing node to render a second video frame prior to initiating a present operation that comprises sending, to a display controller, rendered data corresponding to the first video frame.
