This worries me currently. If all uniforms are set, this should be fine as use would always be true and branch prediction should not be that bad. But if this is only a partial update, then this could get very slow.

I've solved this by storing the used IDs in an additional vector. This adds an additional lookup but should avoid pipeline flushes.
It's hard to say what the impact of a mispredicted branch would be, so we could change this back in the future if it turns out to only have a marginal effect.
