I was just wondering if stat(2) and a chrdev major check would be a
solid criteria to more efficiently (compared to parsing the text

Maybe I'm missing something, but is the per-PID walk actually a
measurable performance issue rather than just a bit unpleasant?
Per pid and per each open fd.
As said in the other thread what bothers me a bit in this scheme is that
the cost of obtaining GPU usage scales based on non-GPU criteria.
For use case of a top-like tool which shows all processes this is a
smaller additional cost, but then for a gpu-top like tool it is somewhat
higher.
