The issue
We are experiencing a strange app performance drop.
The app has a relative high cpu load. When starting multiple video players, after a certain threshold of players, the fps drop from maybe 60fps to 5fps. Even when stopping the players again, the fps stay that low. This did not happen with the the AVPro 2 version in Unity 2022.
We know that a high base cpu/gpu load is not good, but this did not happen with our app before upgrading to Unity 6 and the AVPro 3 version. Or maybe Vulkan can be the reason.
But checking the running threads on the device I can see some threads that jump to high cpu usage suddenly when the player threshold is met.
