CPU spikes by 3-10% at "Physics.Processing" when using Physics.RebuildBroadphaseRegions

Physics

-

Reproduction steps:
1. Open the attached "PhysicsPerformanceRepro.zip" project
2. Open the "OutdoorsScene" Scene
3. Enter the Play mode
4. Open and observe the Profiler window

Expected result: There are no CPU spikes at "Physics.Processing"
Actual result: CPU spikes by 3-10% at "Physics.Processing"

Reproducible with: 2019.4.37f1, 2020.3.33f1, 2021.3.1f1, 2022.1.0b14, 2022.2.0a10

  1. Resolution Note:

    The spikes appear under Physics.Processing only due to the fact that, by design, if Physics is not done simulating yet and we're just waiting for it to be done, we allow for other jobs to jump in and do their work. It doesn't have to be physics related at all. This helps process things quicker, but of course generally we still show this section as "Physics.Processing" in the profiler, since we are waiting for it to be done.
