Can you make something like an experiment... hardcode all values and see if and when people actually have issues with this? Maybe expose one single parameter: "precission multiplier" that could multiply numbers + lower lookup? For me after all this time it is super easy to use this cache, but for newbies this will require quite some time to dedicate to learning.

"PhotonGI can now render black rooms"
what is that?
