Getting the most out of DCS Multithreading

what are all of the letter/number combos in the fxo and metashaders2 folders? How does it impact the sim if they are removed?
Tbh I have no idea what they are, but my understanding is these are cache files which are autogenerated and will re-populate after relaunching the sim. It’s recommended to delete this cache occasionally because overtime things change after DCS updates. The files can become outdated or corrupted which will begin to cause stutters
