Testing 5x Fadecandy USB controllers, capable of driving 2560 LED pixels.

In this test, four of the boards have no LEDs attached to them and one board (behind the triangle) only has the triangle's 16 LEDs attached. But the firmware is still outputting data for all 2560 LEDs at almost 400 frames per second. The LEDs blinking in unison means that each board is receiving frames from Open Pixel Control simultaneously.
