You know nothing.

Skia is definitely not a good example at all. Skia started as a CPU renderer, and added GPU rendering later, which heavily relies on caching. Vello, for example, takes a completely different approach compared to Skia.

NV path rendering is a joke. nVidia though that ALL graphics would be rendered on GPU within 2 years after making the presentation, and it took 2 decades and 2D CPU renderers still shine.

I believe Skia's new Graphite architecture is much more similar to Vello
