To fix this, a technique named *Parallel Split Shadow Maps* (PSSM) is used.
|

This splits the view frustum in 2 or 4 areas. Each area gets its own shadow map.

This allows small areas close to the viewer to have the same shadow resolution

as a huge, far-away area. When shadows are enabled for DirectionalLight3D, the
|

default shadow mode is PSSM with 4 splits. In scenarios where an object is large
|
||||
enough to appear in all four splits, it results in increased draw calls. Specifically,
|
||||
such an object will be rendered five times in total: once for each of the four shadow
|
||||
splits and once for the final scene rendering. This can impact performance, understanding
|

this behavior is important for optimizing your scene and managing performance expectations.
