When I talk about the way I deal with shader combinatorial explosion I have
an easy way to show the benefit. I talk about the "basic" shaders
(admittedly choosen ad-hoc to maximize drama), I show some slides, I
estimate the benefit in terms of production gained.
But this is more performance oriented, more technical. Perhaps it involves
specific "performance patterns", perhaps it needs adeguate workload. If I
had to demo this thing, I wouldn't know where to start.

I'd like to read some further elaborations on that.

Thank you in advance.
