compiler VS steam-deck-utilities

Edit: Sorry meant to include links: https://github.com/withastro/compiler/tree/main/packages/compiler

I can feel that the team really tries to bridge the developer experience (DX) and performance by leveraging their own Astro compiler.

CryoUtilities for performance optimization.

First you will need Cryoutilities installed. Set it up and set the recommended settings. There is a guide on how to set VRAM to 4gb in the video for Cryoutilities, so do this as well. Next install the Starfield Potato Mode Textures Mod and use the 256 bit version for slightly better quality (the standard version is a bit better performance but I don’t like the muddiness of the textures).

Then I installed the CryoByte utility as described here: https://github.com/CryoByte33/steam-deck-utilities (also worked fine).

CryByte33 utilities app. Pay attention that you will need to apply 4G graphics memory fix from Steam Deck BIOS too.

CryoUtilities will let you keep the shader cache on the same storage device the game is installed on. I still think an SSD is a worthwhile upgrade but I thought that was worth mentioning.

Use https://github.com/CryoByte33/steam-deck-utilities to move your game's shader caches to the drive each game is on, instead of the default 64gb ssd.

INSTALLATION: To install Cryo Utilities, make sure you have a sudo password already set otherwise it cannot perform tweaks necessary for this to work. 1st download the installer here: CryoByte33/steam-deck-utilities: A utility to improve performance and help manage storage on Steam Deck.
