An apparatus includes a plurality of virtual machines, a hypervisor coupled to the plurality of virtual machines, and a graphical processing unit (GPU) coupled to the hypervisor. The plurality of virtual machines are allocated a plurality of time slices. The hypervisor initiates a world switch to a first virtual machine of the plurality of virtual machines. The GPU makes a determination as to whether to adjust the time slice associated with the first virtual machine based on an assessment of time slice adjustment parameters related to an execution time of at least one of the plurality of virtual machines.
