    I have some configure data come from *.xlsl file ，in my old project, every xlsl file was parsered to dictionary, use struct as the value,and put it in some singleton class,do I need to use the NativeHashmap and the NativeString?

    If you care about performance & load speed then. Then the runtime data should be stored in a blob asset or IComponentData if it can be represented that way for what you need at runtime.

    Simplest approach would be the perform the parsing during game object -> entity scene conversion and output blob data or multiple entity/ icomponentdata representing the data.
