    Sprite quoto in the scene gameObject script，but leave this scene，use GC.Collect() and Resources.UnloadUnusedAssets()， Sprite and SpriteAtlas not dispose。look profiler，see SpriteAtlas and its Sprite repeat quote。

    Hello,
    Those circular references are a bit misleading and something we want to show as unimportant in the upcoming Memory Profiler package. I mean, they are relevant to see what's connected to what but beyond that, if one of the 2 objects is still referenced, the other won't be unloaded, but the circular references are not what is holding these objects in memory.

    Is there anything else that is keeping a reference to them? And is this a snapshot taken while the profiler was connected to a built Player, or is this an Editor snapshot? Because the Editor (including Playmode) can have odd memory behavior that won't be there in a built Player so, this might be a non-issue in a build.
