Description

Hello,

Thank you for all the work on this package!

It seems to be using Texture2d.Apply under the hood. If I am not mistaken, this triggers a synchronous GPU upload. This synchronous upload can cause frames to drop if the image is not small, and/or its a weak mobile device.

Do you have any suggestions for doing asynchronous GPU uploads?

Best,
Gerald

Research direction

Start by tracing the package's use of Unity's Texture2d.Apply, which the issue identifies as the synchronous upload entry point. Determine whether asynchronous GPU uploads are supported or need a new design, and define completion using frame-time behavior on large images or weak mobile devices.
