Hi all, apparently there was never filed a bug report for the issue where objects where reported double, once under a proper root and once under Other → Objects, so lets treat this thread as one. The issue was resolved in 2018.2.0a6 and the fix was back-ported to 2017.4.19f1
That means any versions after that have that fix included (i.e. 2018.3.x, 2018.4.x, 2019.1.x, 2019.2.x, 2019.3.x, …). If there are any issues that appear similar to this, please do file a bug with a repro project through the bug reporter. The data shown by the (memory) profiler should be reliable (and actionable) and we’d want to fix whatever we can where that is not the case.
@blueteak That version should have the fix mentioned in this thread so whatever you’re seeing is likely a new issue. Please file a bug report so we can investigate and fix this.
