Memory Management

Memory Budget System

public class MobileMemoryManager : MonoBehaviour
{
    [SerializeField] private long _warningThresholdMB = 800;
    [SerializeField] private long _criticalThresholdMB = 1000;
    
    public event Action OnMemoryWarning;
    public event Action OnMemoryCritical;
    
    private void Awake()
    {
        // iOS memory warning callback
        Application.lowMemory += OnLowMemory;
    }
    
    private void OnDestroy()
    {
        Application.lowMemory -= OnLowMemory;
    }
    
    private void OnLowMemory()
    {
        Debug.LogWarning("Low memory warning received");
        OnMemoryCritical?.Invoke();
        
        // Emergency cleanup
        Resources.UnloadUnusedAssets();
        GC.Collect();
    }
    
    public MemoryStatus GetMemoryStatus()
    {
        long usedMB = Profiler.GetTotalAllocatedMemoryLong() / 1_000_000;
        
        if (usedMB >= _criticalThresholdMB)
            return MemoryStatus.Critical;
        if (usedMB >= _warningThresholdMB)
            return MemoryStatus.Warning;
        return MemoryStatus.Normal;
    }
    
    public void RequestCleanup()
    {
        // Aggressive cleanup
        StartCoroutine(CleanupRoutine());
    }
    
    private IEnumerator CleanupRoutine()
    {
        // Unload unused assets
        var operation = Resources.UnloadUnusedAssets();
        yield return operation;
        
        // GC with minimal pause
        GC.Collect(0, GCCollectionMode.Optimized);
        yield return null;
        
        GC.Collect(1, GCCollectionMode.Optimized);

    public static void SetQualityForDevice(DeviceTier tier)
    {
        switch (tier)
        {
            case DeviceTier.Low:

                QualitySettings.anisotropicFiltering = AnisotropicFiltering.Disable;
                break;
                
            case DeviceTier.Medium:
                QualitySettings.globalTextureMipmapLimit = 1; // 1/2 resolution
                QualitySettings.anisotropicFiltering = AnisotropicFiltering.Enable;
                break;
                
            case DeviceTier.High:
                QualitySettings.globalTextureMipmapLimit = 0; // Full resolution
                QualitySettings.anisotropicFiltering = AnisotropicFiltering.ForceEnable;
                break;
        }
    }
    
    public static void ForceReduceTextureMemory()
    {
        // Increase mipmap limit temporarily
        QualitySettings.globalTextureMipmapLimit++;
        
        // Force GPU to release memory
        Resources.UnloadUnusedAssets();
    }

                QualitySettings.vSyncCount = 2;
                // Additional battery saving
                Screen.brightness = 0.5f;
                break;
        }
    }
    
    public void SetAdaptiveFrameRate(bool inCombat)
    {

        if (inCombat)
        {
            Application.targetFrameRate = _highPerformanceFps;
        }
        else

        }
        else
        {

        }
        
        _wasInBackground = pauseStatus;
    }
    
    private void OnEnterBackground()
    {
        // Pause audio
        AudioListener.pause = true;
        
        // Stop expensive updates
        Time.timeScale = 0;

Render Pipeline Optimization

Dynamic Resolution

public class DynamicResolutionController : MonoBehaviour
{
    [SerializeField] private float _targetFrameTime = 16.67f; // 60 FPS
    [SerializeField] private float _minScale = 0.5f;
    [SerializeField] private float _maxScale = 1f;

        float frameTime = Time.unscaledDeltaTime * 1000f;
        _smoothedFrameTime = Mathf.Lerp(_smoothedFrameTime, frameTime, 0.1f);
        
        // Adjust scale
        if (_smoothedFrameTime > _targetFrameTime * 1.2f)
        {
            // Too slow - reduce resolution
            _currentScale = Mathf.Max(_minScale, _currentScale - 0.05f);
        }
        else if (_smoothedFrameTime < _targetFrameTime * 0.8f)
        {
            // Room for improvement - increase resolution
            _currentScale = Mathf.Min(_maxScale, _currentScale + 0.02f);
        }
        
        ScalableBufferManager.ResizeBuffers(_currentScale, _currentScale);

LOD Bias

                break;
        }
    }
}

Best Practices

Profile on actual devices - Not just Editor
Set memory budgets per device tier
Monitor thermal state and adapt
Use dynamic frame rate based on gameplay
Implement quality tiers automatically
Handle background/foreground transitions
Pool and reuse everything
Compress textures appropriately
Limit draw calls to <100 on low-end
Test on minimum spec devices

Troubleshooting

Issue	Solution
App killed by OS	Reduce memory, handle lowMemory
Device overheating	Monitor thermal, reduce quality
Battery drain	Lower frame rate, disable features
Stuttering	Profile GC, use pools
Long load times	Stream assets, show progress
Crash on low-end	Test minimum spec, reduce quality
