Description
Hi, is it possible to use gpu instancing on this shader? If no, what is the alternative when having a resonable amount of the same model on screen (below 100)?
Also I saw that it cranks up the vert count? Is it the outline pass or the rimlight?

Research direction
Start by checking the shader's GPU-instancing support and comparing vertex counts with the outline and rimlight passes in a minimal scene containing repeated models. Confirm whether instancing is available, identify which pass accounts for the increase, and document the supported alternative for fewer than 100 copies.
