The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for graphics processing including an apparatus, e.g., a GPU. The apparatus may determine whether to divide a group of threads into a plurality of sub-groups of threads, each thread of the group of threads being associated with a shader program. The apparatus may also divide, upon determining to divide the group of threads into the plurality of sub-groups of threads, the group of threads into the plurality of sub-groups of threads. Additionally, the apparatus may execute, upon dividing the group of threads into the plurality of sub-groups of threads, a subsection of the shader program for each sub-group of threads of the plurality of sub-groups of threads.
