Question by Ben Ezard · Jun 16, 2012 at 04:17 PM · guiresourcesongui

OnGUI() Resources

I was wondering if there is a way to see how much resources are being used to process the OnGUI() methods? For example how many milliseconds it takes to execute all of the OnGUI() methods together, and also how many times it gets called per frame. I know I can make this with a simple counter variable in a script ut I was wondering if Unity had anything built in?

Well there's the profiler in Unity PRO - but that is allegedly inaccurate when it comes to OnGUI calls (it records the editors OnGUI stuff too).

Also your own counter won't take in to consideration the setup/$$anonymous$$r down time for an OnGUI call, but it will give you the nmber of calls (which will be many depending on whether you are moving/clicking) etc.

You can surround your own code with Profiler.BeginSample and Profiler.EndSample (if your scripts are in an assembly, its a bit problematic, but it can be done).

If you put these tags within OnGUI called code, then you get nested entries in the Unity Pro Profiler.
