    It’s a CPU thing. Most games tend to require lots of GPU and very little CPU. Compiling shaders during runtime is usually fine.

      I used to let them complete but when I discovered the negligible difference I stopped. Crimson Desert helped cement that decision because Steam would compile them then the game would do sp after ot started.
