Unity 6000.4 has reached its end of life and will not receive further updates. If you need additional fixes, please upgrade to a newer Unity version.
Reproduction steps:
1. Open the attached project "IN-141292"
2. Connect a mouse which supports 1000 Hz polling rate or higher
3. Open scene "SampleScene"
4. Enter Play Mode
5. Move the mouse cursor in Play Mode view (make sure that the view is focused by left-clicking on the view)
6. Observe the result in the graph in the top right corner of the Game view
Actual result: The Editor experiences severe lag spikes and FPS drops when moving the mouse (e.g., from a stable 160+ FPS to alternating <10 FPS dips)
Expected result: The Editor maintains a stable framerate without lag spikes
