| This sky type requires heavy precomputation to be rendered. Because of this, the first few frames (depending on the *Number of bounces* parameter) are going to take much longer. This needs to be taken into consideration when switching from another sky type to the Physically Based Sky for example as it might produce a noticeable drop in framerate. | |||

Improved this bit too. Suggested change:
When you use a Physically Based Sky it might cause a noticeable drop in framerate. This is because HDRP performs a large amount of precomputations to render a Physically Based Sky, so the first few frames (depending on the Number of bounces parameter) takes more time to render than other HDRP sky types.

Change sounds good but I think it's missing emphasis on this part:
This needs to be taken into consideration when switching from another sky type to the Physically Based Sky for >example as it might produce a noticeable drop in framerate.
That stresses out the fact that switching sky type during gameplay is going to show this drop in framerate.

Thanks for your feedback! I've changed my suggestion to the following:
When you switch to or from a Physically Based Sky, it might cause a noticeable drop in framerate. This is because HDRP performs a large amount of precomputations to render a Physically Based Sky, so the first few frames (depending on the Number of bounces parameter) takes more time to render than other HDRP sky types.
