Is offloading to GPU a worthwhile feature?

Hi, all:

This is an entirely idle pondering kind of question, but I wanted to
ask. I recently discovered that some edge providers are starting to
offer systems with GPU cards in them -- primarily for clients that need
to provide streaming video content, I guess. As someone who needs to run
a distributed network of edge nodes for a fairly popular git server, I
wondered if git could at all benefit from utilizing a GPU card for
something like delta calculations or compression offload, or if benefits
would be negligible.

I realize this would be silly amounts of work. But, if it's worth it,
perhaps we can benefit from all the GPU computation libs written for
cryptocoin mining and use them for something good. :)

Best,
