Understanding and Mitigating Overdraw in Unity3D
Overdraw occurs when multiple fragments are rendered to the same pixel during a frame, especially common with overlapping transparent objects. Since transparent surfaces require blending with existing framebuffer content, each additional layer increases GPU workload—potentially degrading performence significantly.
Common causes include excessiv ...
