Regression
Yes
Sprites reference both the original Sprite assets and Sprite Atlas resulting in increased memory usage
Steps to reproduce:
1. Play the attached "TestFor1071494.zip" project's SampleScene
2. In the Profiler window go to Memory view in Detailed mode
3. Click Take Sample: Editor
4. In the batch viewer go to Assets -> Texture2D
5. Notice the entries for both the Sprite Atlas and each individual Sprite asset
Expected result: Sprites only reference the Sprite Atlas
Actual result: Sprites reference the Sprite Atlas and the original Sprite assets

Latest issues
- Required SpriteMask class (ID 331) is stripped when "Strip Engine Code" is enabled
- “Maximized serialized file backup not found” error is thrown when minimizing a window in a newly opened project
- Build stack trace contains invalid lines when building with IL2CPP using scripts with delegates containing generic types in the signature
- Entities Systems window has a “Show Full Player Loop” dropdown which does nothing when clicked after enabling “Show Full Player Loop”
- Entities Hierarchy Search “Show/Hide” button’s Lens Icon is blurry when the Editor is on an external monitor
Resolution Note (2020.1.X):
In Editor both Original texture and Atlas texture are held as references by SpriteFrame. Hence the info shown by Profiler. When building Player/AssetBundles ONLY the Atlas texture is referenced and serialized. Hence you see the additional texture as reference in playmode.
