Is 600-800B Per-Frame Of Garbage Collection A Lot? (First Game - Unity - PCVR)

I’m developing my first game and it’s for PCVR, I’ve started profiling and noticed that I’m accruing 600-800 Bytes of garbage per frame. Is that a lot for a normal game that might eventually wind up on standalone VR platforms like Quest / Pico?

That’s totally fine, less is better, but no game is made perfectly (and sometimes you simply have to allocate). \Make sure you use incremental GC as well.

Okay thanks. I’ve gotten my end down to near 0, but FMOD, VFX Graph and Shader Graph are all producing allocations that I have no control over. So I guess that’s the best I can do.
