  1. Resolution Note:

    Thank you for the bug report. We’ve taken a closer look at this and determined that the best way for us to deal with this is through a cross team initiative. To this end we are creating multiple internal tickets utilizing the reproduction projects from this and other bug reports for investigation and fix validation purposes.
    Since this means voting on the bugs is no longer possible, nor is it possible to follow along on the status of the fix, we’ll move all of that into this Discussions thread (https://discussions.unity.com/t/unknown-memory-in-memory-profiler/920144/12). We’ll try our best to keep you updated on the status of this issue there.

    Really? 11 months and still not solved? Did you see how many developers have the same issue in the forums?

    this would be a HUGE HUGE help in tracking down some memory issues that are plaguing the team working on Babysteps.
