Question by Redamz · Apr 13, 2016 at 11:44 AM · editor performance lag profiler low fps

Editor incredibly slow, weird profiler output.

After "upgrading" to Windows 10 the Unity editor is being painfully slow. I have found similar issues all over the net but the only solution seems to be to force dx9 (which is not a real solution and doesn't even solve the prolem for me, it just makes it less slow).

Here's what my profiler shows, hopefully it will bring some insight. alt text

If anyone knows a solution I'd really appreciate the help, this is driving me crazy.

A small update. I managed to make it work properly with dx9 by tweaking some Nvidia panel settings, there is no improvement when launching the editor in dx11 though, there's still random spikes every few seconds (as you can see in the profiler image I posted).

This seems to be purely a dx11 issue. My GPU (GTX 980) drivers are fully updated, hardware is brand new running other games and software smoothly. It's not my project either, the issue persists in a new project running on a fresh Unity installation.
