Issue ID
1234193
Regression
Yes
AsyncGPUReadback.Request never releases unused allocated memory
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the attached project (case_1234193.zip)
2. Open Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc on Windows) or Activity Monitor on Mac
3. Enter Play Mode
4. Observe memory usage in Task Manager / Activity Monitor
Expected result: Allocated memory gets automatically freed when it is no longer used
Actual result: Loaded texture is never released, causing a memory leak
Reproduced in: 2020.1.0a19, 2020.1.0b5, 2020.2.0a5
Not reproducible in: 2018.4.20f1, 2019.3.9f1, 2020.1.0a18
Cannot test with: 2017.4.39f1 (AsyncGPUReadback unavailable)
Note:
- The issue is reproducible on Metal, Vulkan, D3D11 and D3D12 Graphics APIs.
- Cannot test on OpenGLCore Graphics API since it does not support asynchronous readback
