First, Vulkan needed some [corrected offsets](https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/pull/5936) for `TexelFetch` and `TextureGather`, types of texture instructions.
A similar change [was needed for OpenGL.](https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/pull/5980) this work also includes better handling of `signed atomics`, improving precision.

Thanks to [Ryujinx](https://github.com/Ryujinx/Ryujinx) for helping here.

[Rodrigo](https://github.com/ReinUsesLisp) [fixed a bug in Vulkan’s stream buffer,](https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/pull/5919) improving performance and reducing VRAM use, while also making better use of the dedicated VRAM, instead of falling back to shared VRAM, which is better known as just system RAM.
By [using dirty flags](https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/pull/5923), [Rodrigo](https://github.com/ReinUsesLisp) also managed another slim but measurable Vulkan performance bump.

Reducing draw calls always helps!
After a lot of time of experimentation, [Rodrigo](https://github.com/ReinUsesLisp) [reduced the size of Vulkan’s command pool](https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/pull/5989), from 4096 to just 4.

This makes the driver assign less memory for command buffers, saving a considerable amount of system RAM.
For example, in `Pokèmon Sword/Shield`, Vulkan’s use of system RAM goes from 707MB, to just 2MB.

To end the day, [Rodrigo](https://github.com/ReinUsesLisp) fixed a regression introduced by the `Buffer Cache Rewrite`.
Some games benefit from skipping the cache, but others lose performance. `Animal Crossing: New Horizons` was an example severely affected in Vulkan.
