> in somewhat similar use-cases. I.e. if you have an embarrassingly parallel compute-bound algorithm then it might make sense to offload it to FPGAs to gain performance and power efficiency.

Also concurrency! GPU is SIMD; FPGA need not be.




Yes, FPGA "threads" much like CPU threads can contain complex logic, and different from each other.
