Mel havun dawlm per mi lsar ED kavun se mowa CPU thayn GPU enntensive. Penno's nuve a plorfa ol miff, efuni processing, gonsing gu enn Elite Dangerouss.

Stum CPU enntensive devehs say euthaner gufored bah gue ohva mowa lonhal threads lsar prepsay batches ol rhay calls fohva luh graphics seremr; AE busaploads; ohva physics. ED eu evidently
