Global Illumination Profiler module

The Global Illumination Profiler module displays statistics and how much CPU time the real-time Global Illumination (GI) subsystem uses across all worker threads. For more information on Global Illumination, see the documentation on Global Illumination, and for information on Enlighten, see Using Enlighten with Unity.

Note: The Global Illumination Profiler module uses Enlighten, which is deprecated and will soon be removed. Refer to the Unity blog for more information. As an alternative, use Progressive GPU Lightmapper (Preview) or Progressive CPU Lightmapper.

Chart categories

The Global Illumination Profiler module’s chart tracks the time the GI subsystem spent on all worker threads. The timings are divided into 10 categories. To change the order of the categories in the chart, you can drag and drop them in the chart’s legend. You can also click a category’s colored legend to toggle its display.

Chart Descripción
Total CPU The time spent across all threads.
Light Probe The time spent updating Light Probes.
Setup The time spent in the Setup stage.
Environment The time spent processing Environment lighting.
Input Lighting The time spent processing input lighting.
Systems The time spent updating Systems.
Solve Tasks The time spent running radiosity solver tasks.
Dynamic Objects Time spent updating Dynamic GameObjects.
Other Commands Time spent updating other commands.
Block Command Write Time spent in a blocked state, waiting for the command buffer.
