Change the priority of ShaderCompileWorker.exe

[CaioSilva00977]

The poor performance of Materials/Shaders in UE4 has been a great deal of frustration for me…the first video below should illustrate how bad this is.
If i make a very simple change to a material ie color. it takes at least 2 mins 30 secs to preview/nodes, show in the game editor, and update the swatch in content editor…
However if I manually boost ShaderCompileWorker.exe’s priority to Above normal it takes seconds…
How can I permanently set the exes priority to Above Normal or even just Normal?

It's not as difficult as it may seem, you just need to tinker
Win+R - Regedit
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\
then you need to find out the exact name of the executable file of the program (game). To do this, just right-click on its shortcut and go to properties. After that, in the "Shortcut" section — in the "Object" line, copy the name of the executable file
now, in the open registry branch, create a section (folder) with the name of the executable file of the program
next, in the branch with the name of the game (program), create another section (folder) and name it "PerfOptions"
the final touch: in the "PerfOptions" section, create a DWORD parameter (32), name it "CpuPriorityClass" and set the value based on the requirements (note: 1 — low priority; 5 — below average; 8 — average; 6 — above average; 3 — high).
now, when you start the game, Windows will automatically prioritize it.

You can set priority manual from task manager regedit

There is no way to permanently set the priority of ShaderCompileWorker.exe, but you can set it to Above Normal or Normal each time you run the program.

This is done through the task manager, look for exactly how, I don’t remember exactly

I believe it could be enhanced if you gave it high priority.
