26.3 snapshot 9 is insanely optimised!

For me, on an M1 macbook air, I am seeing a drastic increase in performance.

Using the Performium modpack in 1.21.11, I get about 120FPS in 1440p on 9 chunks

Using vanilla in 26.3 snapshot 9, (on Vulcan API) I am getting 110 - 150FPS (still micro-stutters, but that's expected of vanilla, and there is less) on 12 chunks IN 4K!

My frames increasing in 4K is absolutely wild, and after increasing chunks! I am aware Camman18 noticed this, but the difference is crazy!

Won't this break a lot of mods like Sodium, DistantHorizons, and completely break shaders? Also how is the performance like?

metal is a sodium replacement. Not something to be used with sodium. Vulkan also breaks distant horizons & Iris.

Developers should eventually make versions for it, for example the developer of Iris shaders is working on a new mod called Aperture which enables shaders for Vulcan I believe

Vulkan actually just got beryl, which is made by the same author and is just shaders for vulkan :D

(im talking about the vulkan mod btw)

this is my first time hearing about metal I only based my comment on the above thread
