How to Analyze the Performance Cost of Your Unity Shaders

In this post, you will learn how to analyze your unity shader complexity with numbers so you finally can:

• Stop being fragment-bound in your unity game performance
• Compare the GPU complexity between two shaders
• Analyze shader costs in terms of texture, arithmetic and load/store GPU cycles
• … And reach 60, 90 or higher FPS

For this, we will use this little-known tool called mali offline shader compiler.

With this free software, you’ll finally be able to see how you’re spending your GPU cycles in your Unity shaders.

So let’s get started with this exciting topic.
