Summary
/usr/lib/environment.d/40-cachyos-gaming-shader-cache.conffromcachyos-gaming-meta, setting Mesa (MESA_SHADER_CACHE_MAX_SIZE=12G) and NVIDIA (__GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SIZE=12000000000) to the same 12GB ceilings recommended in the gaming wiki tip.Users can override via
/etc/environment.d/(prefer a 60–90 prefix) or~/.config/environment.d/. Values only raise the max; they do not preallocate disk.Wiki follow-up: CachyOS/wiki#634
