Thread #7306 was closed prematurely on this topic, so there's relevant stuff in there.

I'm on Ubuntu 20.04, and every single time I log into STEAM it recompiles shaders, even if I just rebooted after recompiling shaders just minutes prior. This is a real pain because it's just wasting electricity, heating my computer up, and other such unnecessary stuff on something that should have already been completed.

Can we please have this investigated? Everyone seems to be experiencing this.
