Semaphore.WaitForSignal under Canvas.BuildBatch causes a slow editor in Play mode

Visual Effects - Legacy

-

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the attached project "Temp Project" from the ownCloud link
2. Open "Main Scene"
3. Turn on the Profiler window
4. Enter Play mode
5. Notice the Spikes from Semaphore.WaitForSignal

Expected results: Semaphore.WaitForSignal does not cause spikes in the Profiler window and making Editor slow
Actual results: Semaphore.WaitForSignal causes spikes in the Profiler window and makes Editor slow

Reproducible with: 2019.2.3f1, 2019.3.0b1, 2020.1.0a1

Note: 2019.1 breaks the project and its packages

    Same issue here 2019.3.0f3 Windows 10 and Android 9 reproduces this error when building game standalone for windows or android with autoconnect profiler.
    Inside editor the Semaphore high MS does not appear when profiling only when i build external development build.
    This Semaphore severely skews other profiler data.
