[Quest 2] 2022.2 is slower than 2021.3 when built on Quest 2

--

-

Reproduction steps:
1. Open Oculus Developer Hub, go to the Device Manager tab, and install OVR Metrics
2. Turn on Metrics Hud
3. Open the OVR Metrics tool on the Oculus device, and select “Basic” under Quick-set Enabled Stats
4. Open the user’s project
5. Build and run on the Oculus Quest device
6. Check GPU usage difference using OVR Metrics

Expected result: GPU usage difference is less than 5%
Actual result: GPU usage differs by more than 5%

Results:
version - GPU usage
2020.3.39f1 - 35%
2021.3.8f1 - 43%
2022.1.14f1 - 38%
2022.2.0b6 - 46%
2023.1.0a6 - 46%

Reproducible with devices:
VLNQA00379, Oculus (Quest 2), Android 10, CPU: Snapdragon XR2, GPU: Adreno (TM) 650

Reproduced on:
Windows 10 Pro 21H2

    There is a new big performance issue on the issue tracker. URP team is already made aware and reproduced it themselves (not just QA)
    https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/issues/urp-xr-performance-degradation-when-comparing-android-quest-2-builds-across-2020-dot-3-and-2023-dot-x

    Here are some other smaller issues that are relevant to VR performance as well:
    Input system optimizations performing worse in VR: https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/issues/input-system-enabling-both-optimization-options-of-input-system-reduces-performance-in-built-players
    OculusXR performing worse than OpenXR: https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/issues/quest-2-oculusxr-has-worse-performance-than-openxr-when-built

    However, it is not uncommon for software updates to have varying levels of performance depending on the device being used. Sometimes updates can result in improvements in performance, but in other cases, there may be new features or changes that may negatively impact performance on certain devices.

    I too am still attached to the 2019.4 LTS version.
    In my tests any later version has lower performance.

    It is not understandable or admissible that later versions of Unity have worse performance on the target platforms (Quest in this case, although they also occur in other areas) as this would be the main measure of Unity's improvement, which hurts the most developers and what makes it difficult for them to move to new versions of Unity and use the new features, and I think they are the main problem that Unity should address, above new features, and even bug fixes.

    NOT FIXED. THE "DUPLICATE" IS ALSO NOT FIXED.

    Tested this myself yesterday. The issue still persists!
    Unity Editor and Builds are noticeably slower in 2022 & 2023.

    I thought I was going crazy the last 2 months why my perf dropped from 72+ fps to 45-50. I even went so far as to recreate my project multiple times, incrementally changing values back to the original, to no avail. Changing from OpenGL to Vulkan got me about 5-10 FPS increase, but still well under the required 72 I used to have.

    I'm using 2021.3.8f1.

    I would put that this happens starting from 2020.2
    where URP 10 was forced by default, introducing this performance drop
