Material Maker version:

OS/device including version: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core Processor 3.70 GHz, 16,0 GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti

Issue description: Its not really a big issue, but in my computer, material maker is having a big lag. but its not a simple fps drop. i have my fps counter up and its running at 100 fps average. but sometimes the material maker feels like its lagging, which is not a big problem but its a bit bothering.

@Arankasih How complex are the materials you're trying to edit? What does GPU utilization look like when Material Maker stutters?

You can mitigate lags by disabling parallel rendering (note parallel renderers will be gone in 1.4):

right click on the progress bar (bottom-right of the window)
uncheck the "auto" option
set the number of renderers to 1

If it's not enough:

set the maximum buffer size to 512 (this wil render lower resolution/quality materials and some nodes might render incorrectly, but you should avoid crashes) while you work on materials, and only revert this setting when exporting or working with details
