Phoronix recently reported that the Vallium cpu implementation of
vulkan was already able to render Talos Principle. If work on it keeps
on at that pace, by Oct when Jacob is free again it will be much
further ahead.

Given this, it would make sense to consider moving to it over Kazan, or
at least checking the possibility.
