rendering may be slower for a second or two, but the slowdown will not be nearly as bad as the typical hiccup caused by classic synchronous compilation.

New dynamic BVH for rendering and the GodotPhysics backends. If you experience a regression in either physics or rendering, you can try these Project Settings to revert back to the previous Octree-based approach and possibly fix the issue. Multiple fixes to one-way collisions. CSG: Various bug fixes. New CPU lightmapper.

It means you type a string manually every time you need it e.g. when checking collisions, getting a game object in the scene, getting a child object from a parent, etc. This is messy and will lead to hard-to-find bugs in the end. Cameras render things on screen, and that’s a heavy process that is updated every second.
