It's much worse in Rocket League than Tomb Raider for what is a much graphically simpler game. While I think this might help, I suspect the game is doing something silly to make it so bad.
but something like: find files pipe to dd which outputs to dev null.
this trick did help with tecture preloading a few times.
issue you describe can also be explained as texture preloading(providing you are in this specific area for first time and this specific enemy never showed up)
Ignore me if same problems happened twice in same place during same computer reboot cycle.

There is no issue with it, it is enabled by default... but most benefit from it will have stable mesa users - aka people who does not change drivers non stop

Blobs has this disk cache, nvidia driver has disk cache for abour 5 years and AMD drivers Catalyst-amdgpu-pro for about 2 years.
Cache is invalidated on every driver upgrade, that is why i guess for everyday all git opensource users is not high priority

Can anyone answer a couple of questions related to this?
1. Can this introduce issues, similar to web browser cache? Will it be easy to remove this cache?
2. Will it have positive effect on nvidia-binary users? Any effect for that matter? Does nvidia have similar cache implemented?

Originally posted by Chewi View PostI really hope this helps with Tomb Raider. Things are getting more intense further into the game and the stutters, though brief, can happen at the worst times. This is on a RX 480 though so here's hoping it gets ported to Radeon. I have a feeling the multithreaded shader stuff will help more though. Does a game like Tomb Raider keep reusing the same shaders?

Mesa Preps For Landing The On-Disk Shader Cache
Phoronix: Mesa Preps For Landing The On-Disk Shader Cache
Just a few days ago was the fifth version of the proposed Mesa on-disk shader cache and it's looking like it may finally be ready for merging with some of the prep infrastructure work having landed today in mainline Mesa...
