AssetDatabase v2 Refresh Significantly Slower Than v1

Is there any news on this issue?
Thanks all

 

FYI I have the same issue with 2020.3 - AssetDatase.Refresh taking 5-6 mins on every project open but only with Cache Server Enabled. The project opens in a few seconds when Disabled.

 

So basically disabling the cache server will fix that issue?
Wasn't cache server meant to speedup assets refresh?

 

Our project contains hundreds of 8K textures. Cache Server (hosted on Google Cloud Storage) does speed up things when opening the project after a major VCS update. We can see textures getting downloaded instead of imported looking at the Task Manager. But we recently ran into that new issue of project opening taking longer than it should after upgrading from 2019.4 to 2020.2 (as far as I remember).

Oh and I should have mentioned that this AssetDabase.Refresh problem also happens every time saving an Amplify shader node graph... We now got used to enable Cache Server only when importing a set of big assets and to manually delete EditorEncounteredVariants before opening which is definitely not ideal.

 

For those having slow script compile issues, this worked for me:



Before I had 2 VS installed, one from 2019 and the other from 2017, I uninstalled the one from 2017 and updated the one from 2019, then I selected the 2019 version in External Script Editor

 

I'm using Rider, so I guess it's not the issue for me

 

It solved my issue too
