When using multiple engines on multiple machines as a grid, I know that during Production each engine handle one tile and when finished move to the next tile.
However, currently the AT stage is only managed by one PC and one CPU.
Please add the following function when using multiple engines:
When running the "Keypoints extraction" and the "Pair selection" each engine will have an image to be calculated and then it will save time during the AT as well.

Please add the option of multiple engines working together with the AT stage.
Please add the option of AT using GPU instead of CPU.
In the age of Instant NeRF the AT engine is already outdated. GPU can do SFM real-time - https://docs.nvidia.com/drive/driveworks-3.5/dwx_struct_from_motion_sample.html
I will add that it will be great to have the AT calculated through GPU because of some times when working on multy process mode the AT time can be longer than the Model processing, then the GPU advantage value will decrease.
