1. A graphics processor having a multi-tile architecture, comprising:
a first graphics processing unit (GPU) having a memory and a memory controller;
a second graphics processing unit (GPU) having a memory; and
a cross-GPU fabric to communicatively couple the first and second GPUs, wherein the memory controller is configured to determine whether frequent cross tile memory accesses occur between the first GPU and the second GPU in the multi-GPU configuration and to cause initiation of a data transfer between the memory of the first GPU and the memory of the second GPU when frequent cross tile memory accesses occur between the first GPU and the second GPU, wherein the memory controller is configured to detect transfer patterns automatically including accesses to page N of the memory of the second GPU and to start transferring pages N+1 and N+2 prior to requests for pages N+1 and N+2.
