Title: garbage collection actions
Post by: dudebxl on February 25, 2016, 10:56:22 PM

I noticed we have no GC actions. Make sure to check your profiler in Unity5 (or Unity4 pro) to see what effect it has on the game.

3 actions

• GarbageCollection : When such a pause occurs, you can request a collection explicitly.
• GarbageCollectionSmallHeap : Small heap with fast and frequent garbage collection for  games that have long periods of gameplay where a smooth framerate is the main concern
• GarbageCollectionLargeHeap : For games where allocations (and therefore collections) are relatively infrequent and can be handled during pauses in gameplay.

Everything is from here and more info:
