Description

Why viewport render updates each time after selecting meshes, clicking, picking material, adding empty node at the canvas etc. even if there is no changes in the scene? Sometimes its gets really annoying.

I can suppose a problem in the Blender but is there a way to fix it?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the viewport render updates after selecting meshes, picking a material, and adding an empty node, as described in the issue. Trace the viewport render update path to determine why it runs without scene changes. Done means unchanged scene interactions no longer trigger unnecessary updates, with the behavior verified in Blender.
