Traditionally, yes. Travelling salesmen type paths are slow on traditional hardware, so would be interesting to see if the cuda cores could speed things up.
But in terms of motion planning (for acceleration profiles) is often done in the controller hardware, and also requires the hardware to look ahead at the next moves and account for them. Traditional DIY controllers are limited by slow processors and limited ram (few hundred kB), which limits the number of moves held in memory while still allowing head room for the calculations.
