Regression

No

High CPU usage and slow editor performance while the Profiler with Deep Profiling is on with no complex scripts

Profiling

-

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the user's submitted project
2. Open scene "DebugScene" under Assets/__Test
3. Open the Profiler with enabled Deep Profile and Play the scene
4. As more text will be instantiated, the editor will slow down and the CPU usage in the Deep Profiler will increase

Expected result: Simple script does not severely increase CPU usage in the Deep Profiler
Actual result: Deep Profiler shows CPU usage very high as more text is instantiated

Reproduced with: 5.6.4f1, 2017.1.2p1, 2017.2.0f3, 2017.3.0b4, 2018.1.0a1

Note: Deep Profiling slows down games if complex scripts are running, but in this case the script only instantiates "text"

  1. Resolution Note (2018.1.X):

    This is somewhat expected. In the 17.1 the UI wasn't tracked properly. We are adding more tracking and debugging around the UI. This is what the user is now seeing. The layout performance goes down slowly as its having to determine where each element fits in a grid every time they add more text.
