Shaders are calculated once per installation. It generates a local database with the shaders, and re uses that with every run. Some games re calculate shaders upon hardware change or driver update. Still, 10 minutes seems a sever impact in load time to wait for the game to become playable. Most games generate a "base" amount of shaders and progressively calculate more as you move through the world...
Anyway, that would be deviating the conversation towards shaders calculations and Bethesdas proficiency with game engine design.
