Wonder what this will look like from an energy consumption standpoint.
Seems like it could get a little heavy for folks that have a shit-ton
of games installed.

Honestly I haven't had an issue with shader compilation wait time
since setting up the current rig in late 2025.. its very fast.  But
I'm not under any delusions of expecting it to get faster over time.
