Unity grass builds patch meshes at runtime which causes cpu spikes
To reproduce:
1. Open repro.unitypackage
2. Open scene test. It contains a terrain populated with grass and a camera that is moved along the terrain via animation
3. Enter play mode and open up the profiler (set the cpu to only display rendering) - notice the spikes. If you expand the overview you can see that they are caused by Terrain.Details.BuildPatchMesh

This makes the terrain details effectively unusable for any scale of project. It should be marked as regression, because this was not present in Unity 3.5

Encountered this problem today.
Periodic spikes that drill down to Camera.Render->Culling->Terrain.Details.Render->Terrain.Details.BuildPatchMesh().
