This update, among other things, adds support for VK_EXT_descriptor_heap, which should bring significant performance boost to Nvidia cards, once it's properly implemented.

Wow an expectation of future vague performance improvements is exciting indeed!

    Vulkan developers said last year that this is the single biggest bottleneck on Nvidia cards that they are aware of. Of course, the final performance improvement can only be known once it is properly implemented, but their guestimation is that it should bring the performance much closer to Windows performance.
