The Unity C# Job System allows users to write multithreaded code that interacts well with the rest of Unity and makes it easier to write correct code.
Writing multithreaded code can provide high-performance benefits. These include significant gains in frame rate and improved battery life for mobile devices.
An essential aspect of the C# Job System is that it integrates with what Unity uses internally (Unity’s native job system). User-written code and Unity share worker threads. This cooperation avoids creating more threads than CPU cores, which would cause contention for CPU resources.
