Hi.
While examining possible pipeline creation speedup there is VkPipelineCache and VK_EXT_graphics_pipeline_library extension.Does VkPipelineCache work in a similar way as VK_EXT_graphics_pipeline_library? I mean let's say we have two pipelines that have the same fragment shader: Pipeline#0 (VS#0, FS#0, ...) and Pipeline#1(VS#1, FS#0, ...). Pipeline#0 gets created first and is added to the VkPipelineCache. Is it so that creation of Pipeline#1 withVkPipelineCache will reuse FS#0 from already compiled Pipeline#0 (in other words no spirv -> platform binaries compilation will happen for FS#0)?Basically what I am aiming here is warming up shader parts of the pipelines in a similar manner that is recommended VK_EXT_graphics_pipeline_library but only via VkPipelineCache. Would that approach work?And the second question: Is it so that spirv->platform binaries compilation is the most time consuming part of pipeline creation?
