Blender 4.2 - EEVEE-Next Feedback

The problem is that auto-detecting the optimal number of subprocesses is harder than it may seem.
It depends on how many physical cores your processor has, how many of them are “performance” vs “efficiency” cores, how the graphics driver handles compilation, how it handles multiple processes, how much RAM you want to allocate to shader compilation…

It’s best to test it yourself, at least until we receive more feedback about the feature.

Thank you for your time and insightful reply.

Apologies if a silly question…
As per the mock-up image, would using the same Cycles CPU threads allocation logic be a good starting point, and more performant, even if an overallocation. Also helpful for Load Factory Settings as an artist friendly default?

Edit:
Just noticed, bug to report?..

With Max Shaders Compilation preferences setting > 0, should /tmp blender_... and BLENDER_SHADER_CACHE folders be automatically deleted when Blender is closed? Currently, more and more folders are created each time a scene is loaded.

Thank you again.
