[5.5b6] DrawMesh no longer batches draw calls when using instanced material (worked in 5.4)

Hey guys, I was just doing some work that involved using the instancing feature. I am using the instanced version of the standard shader for this test. In 5.4, I call Graphics.DrawMesh multiple times using the same mesh and same material, but different material property block (providing different colors). In the frame debugger and profile, I can see that my DrawMesh calls have all been batched in to one draw call.

However, in 5.5, each DrawMesh call is its own drawcall. No batching.

Is something broken?

 

Infact, they dont even dynamically batch in 5.5 using a standard shader and rendering a cube. They are all just seperate draw calls when I use Graphics.DrawMesh.

 

I noticed this today as well as after upgrading to b6.

 

There's now Graphics.DrawMeshInstanced, I guess try that instead?

 

So, approx. two weeks from now?
