<p>Much of the terain genertion consists of doing the same thing for every single column or block in a chunk. This
sort of computation is much faster on a GPU as GPUs are massively parallel. High end GPUs can execute up to 30,000
threads simultaneously, which would allow them to generate every block in half a chunk in parallel or every column
