So when trying to enable the GPU resident drawer in a new project, the editor entirely crashes.
when not enabling it, loads, works fine.
Can you raise a bug about this so we can look into the project?
Already reported as seen here https://unity3d.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/2/IN-61213
https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/product/unity/issues/guid/UUM-57113
would appreciate this being fixed soon
