Is there any reason to set values as powers of 2? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

For instance, when setting render samples, noise threshold, or domain resolution I set it at 128, 256, etc. I've just done it this way ever since I learned Blender, but does this acutally do anything?

You should always experiment to see if it does, it can have large impacts on things like cache coherency but it always depends hugely on your particular scene
