The Recycle command buffers option was introduced for cases like this where we were seeing lot of memory being used up by resetting the command buffers. Instead, by unchecking this box we destroy command buffers and recreate them during reset which keeps memory usage stable. There might be a slight degradation in perf, but we haven't seen developers report that issue.
Unity 6000.2 has reached its end of life and will not receive further updates. If you need additional fixes, please upgrade to a newer Unity version.
This version of Unity has reach end of life and is no longer supported.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the attached project from the Google Drive link
2. Build and run a development project targeting Android for the Meta Quest 2/3/3S
3. Close the app on the Meta Quest and using ADB in the command line enable Vulkan Validation Layers using:
adb shell setprop debug.oculus.loadandinjectpackagedvvl.com.unity.template.urpsample6 1
4. In the Editor open Android Logcat
5. Launch the app on the device and observe the logcat for the Validation Error messages. They will be spammed in the log if the issue occurs. If you don't see those specific errors, keep rerunning the app until you do see them.
Expected Result: These errors do not occur and no memory leak happens
Actual Result: These errors occur and the app can crash due to being Out of Memory
Reproducible with: 2022.3.57f1, 6000.0.35f1, 6000.1.0b4, 6000.2.0a1
Could not test below 6000.0.10f1 and 2021.3.48f1 due to project errors after downgrading and issue no longer reproducing after fixing the project
Reproducible with these devices:
VLNQA00609 - Oculus Quest 3 (Quest 3), CPU: Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 (SM8550), GPU: Adreno 740, OS: 12
VLNQA00417 - Oculus Quest 2 (Quest 2), CPU: Snapdragon XR2, GPU: Adreno 650, OS: 10
VLNQA00415 - Oculus Quest 2 (Quest 2), CPU: Snapdragon XR2, GPU: Adreno 650, OS: 12
Testing Environment: Windows 11
Not reproducible on: No other environment tested
Notes:
-If the scene never changes, Vulkan Validation errors are still spammed however there is no memory leak
-Issue reproduces with both OpenXR and OculusXR Plugins
-Issue reproduces only with Vulkan and when using MultiView Rendering mode
-Android Logcat error:
