I have a simple question regarding geoserver graphic card usage.
Does geoserver or one of its image extensions depend of a good graphic card?
We are configuring a web server machine with a Matrox® G200eR2 with 16MB.
Is it enough to run geoserver and its image processing capabilities?
Maybe the next question is not simple:
How to measure how much graphic card geoserver needs?

Hello Rodriko,
as far as I know, GeoServer does not depend from a graphic card. Our server has low-end onboard graphics, just for a little bit administration and thats it.
I also couldn’t imagine where graphic cards could be used but if you would use the gpu for rendering the images.
Cheers
Stefan

Nope, as far as I know all GeoServer does happens against the CPU, there is
no usage whatsoever of the graphics card

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for your reply!
I thought that, for example, GEOS and JAI could use some graphic card capabilities to some image operation. But I really don’t know much about them =)
Cheers
