Rendering at scale: Efficient strategies for massive object counts
Mega Cat Studios shared practical rendering lessons from Backyard Baseball: static batching, GPU instancing, vertex animation textures, culling, and the URP vs HDRP choice.
What I liked most is that the post starts where performance work should start: profile first, then optimize. They explicitly separate CPU- and GPU-bound problems, then explain the tradeoffs. VAT saves CPU time but adds memory pressure, batching saves draw overhead but can increase GPU memory.
This is not a magic checklist, of course. Still, real production notes from the tech trenches are much more useful than another “optimize your draw calls” summary.
