This tool provides functionality for optimizing Android builds in 1 click: it automatically optimizes image assets, meshes, audio files and project settings to decrease the size of future APK file without visible loss of graphics quality.
If you click this, Optimizer tool looks into every image asset in project and does next things with it:
sets maximum texture size to 1024 pixels
enables crunch compression with 100% quality level
enables mipmap
In most of cases there is no need to have big textures with more than 1024x1024 resolution on mobile devices
If you click this, Optimizer tool looks into every mesh asset in project and does next things with it:
disables tangents (tangents are almost useless on mobile devices and doesn't actually affect graphics quality)
enables mesh compression
If you click this, Optimizer tool looks into every audio asset in project and does next things with it:
if audio file is less than 200 Kb, sets load type to DecompressOnLoad
if audio file is more than 200 Kb but less than 2 Mb, sets load type to CompressedInMemory
otherwise sets load type to Streaming
This optimization reduces CPU usage during audio clips loading and playing and at the same moment it optimizes RAM usage: - small clips are fully downloaded to RAM, it minimizes CPU usage - medium size clips are decompressing in runtime, trading memory use for Audio CPU - big audio clips are not loaded to RAM, they are being streaming from disk instead, it minimizes RAM usage; this method is the most hard for CPU, but usually big audio clips are used not often like small ones, so that's not significant
If you click this, Optimizer tool looks into project settings and does next things with it:
enables Minify Release flag
enables collision meshes baking
sets IL2CPP script building backend, if possible (it's more secure and it increases build productivity)
If you click this, Optimizer tool runs all optimizations together. One click and your build is much more optimized!
