What's the client, what's the server?

Devdraw is a server and rio would be a client. On plan 9, where those programs run doesn't matter at all.

Regarding GPUs, the gpu will be the server and part of the client program can be loaded into that server (a "shader") which would speed up calculation a lot by using the power of the gpu and decreasing the latency in that part of the program. It's clear how the GPU generally works and can be integrated, the server side is in an early stage of development (beginning with drawterm but that project is currently stalled due to a lack of a computer). When it is done, you can think of the GPU as another part of the plan 9 network/installation.
