[OSX] Gfx.WaitForPresent 20ms even without render camera on iMac PRO.

Hi,

I'm not sure if it is bug BUT I have completely empty scene. Camera set to Solid Color, Orthographics AND camera script DISABLED. Which means there is not render camera at all in the scene BUT still Gfx.WaitForPresent is kicking in with 20ms spikes and I have iMac PRO. Is that normal or is it bug?

Thank you, Marek.

 

Gfx.WaitForPresent and VR.WaitForGPU is really well explained in this Unite talk, starting at around 19:40:

Yes I do understand that except our moving camera stutter whenever that 10-20ms kick is there. Im ok waiting for gpu as far as the camera movement is smooth. But it is not.

 

I will hunt it down. BTW we even disable GC. And nothing is moving in the scene. We don't have lights. We move just camera.

 

Here it is. Super simple. 11 TMP. Canvas is World Space. What is moving is camera. We are unable to make this without stuttering. Thank you, Marek.

(Case 1108469)

Seems like when I turn on antialiasing 2x even if the camera is not using it then we get the stutters. But not sure completely.

 

No, even without antialiasing it does not work. We don't allocate anything, everything static, even if I try to make that TMP not UI and just TMP text component in the world, the result is the same, here and there stuttering which is not acceptable for music app. Any idea what can be cause of the stuttering effect? M.

 

I'm running into this issue on an iOS app. The app is running smoothly 50-60fps for a little while, then It starts to stutter every few seconds, and when connecting the phone to the profiler, I see that when each of the stutters occurs it is linked to a huge spike of Gfx.WaitForPresent.

Here's a shot of my profiler:
