Hi, I have recently read Phoronix article[1] about you switching to BLAKE3 instead of SHA1. If BLAKE3 is a cryptographic hash function wouldn't it be faster to use a non cryptographic hash function or even a checksum function? Do you need the benefits of cryptographic hash functions over other hash/checksum functions for the purpose of uniquely identifing Vulkan shaders?
