   I wonder if same could be done to games. How much unnecessary work are modern games submitting to the GPU?

      Game development has apocryphal stories aplenty about inefficient designs--e.g. the thousand-polygon model of a screw used on every rivet for every crate, or making a ship-in-a-bottle by taking a full sized pirate ship model and scaling it down to 1% size. Usually the solution is just to stop doing that.
