On AMD Raven Ridge hardware (Ryzen 5 2400G), this has been a night-and-day difference. Games like No Man's Sky (beta Vulkan renderer) would crash after loading all shaders due to the lag required to build motion blur on the fly. This not only solved that issue, but I'm able to do 30fps with all settings maxed, when before it was a complete slideshow. On emulators such as Cemu and Dolphin, shaders are compiling fast enough that I don't even have to run through each Mario Kart 8 level once to build a sufficient shader cache.

It's actually a bug in Meson 0.51.1. See: https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/5505
It's fixed in Meson master, but 0.51.1 is broken with temporary native config files the way I was using it.

Updated my script with workaround for Meson bug, and it can now also handle customizing Mesa repo to build both regular Mesa and Mesa-aco using the same script. See example in the inline documentation.
