direct engine would be relevant if such could caustics

Yeah. Even though this is amazing. These are purely optimized for one specific goal and somewhat faked raytracing. Made extactly for this situation.
You cant expect this solution to work with your beloved renderer

I've interactived this caustics WebGL demo in 2011(?). The performance is pure smooth motion (=60fps+60Hz or 120fps+120Hz or... with vsync enabled required ). But this demo has renderer limited (~= renderer biased) because it has the resolution limited of caustics map, no dispersion, no GI...

That demo is so old I believe it was discovered in a Egyptian tomb
