The Physics 2D Profiler module’s chart tracks different statistics related to the physics that the physics system processes in the project’s scene, divided into the following chart categories. Click on the frame chart window or select a captured frame in the chart graph to track selected categories. To change the order of the categories in the chart, drag and drop them in the chart’s legend. You can also click a category’s colored legend to toggle its display. Refer to the module details pane for more information about the selected statistics.

| Total Contacts | The total number of contacts that were present in this frame. This includes both Collision and Trigger contacts. Processing and solving contacts can be time consuming therefore they should be kept to a minimum. |
| Total Shapes | The total number of physics shapes that were present in this frame. Different Collider2D produce different amounts of physics shapes ranging from one to unlimited. You can get the shape count and retrieve the physics shapes to determine this for any Collider2D. |
| Total Queries | The total number of queries that were called this frame. This includes queries such as Physics2D.Raycast, Physics2D.OverlapPoint etc. |
| Total Callbacks | The total number of OnCollisionEnter2D, OnCollisionStay2D, OnCollisionExit2D, OnTriggerEnter2D, OnTriggerStay2D and OnTriggerExit2D callbacks that were called in this frame. |

| Total Bodies | The total number of Rigidbody2D that were present in this frame. |
| Awake Bodies | The total number of Rigidbody2D that were both awake (not sleeping) and were present in this frame. |
| Dynamic Bodies | The total number of Rigidbody2D with a Dynamic body type that were present in this frame. Dynamic bodies take the most processing of all body types therefore they should be kept to a minimum. |
| Continuous Bodies | The total number of Rigidbody2D with a Continuous collision detection mode that were present in this frame. Continuous bodies are much more expensive than when using Discrete collision detection mode therefore they should be kept to a minimum. |

Module details pane
When you select a frame in the Physics 2D Profiler module, the details pane displays detailed information about the physics in your project’s scene. The details pane is sorted by category, where each category exists on a single line.
The following reference table describes the statistics available, plus its corresponding profiler counter, and availability in Release builds. The profiler counters are always available in the Editor and Development builds. This information is also available via the ProfilerRecorder API and in the Profiler Module Editor so you can add them to a custom Profiler module.

Contacts
| Statistic | 描述 | Corresponding Profiler Counter (exact name) | Available in Release Players? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total | The total number of contacts that were present in this frame. This includes both Collision and Trigger contacts. Processing and solving contacts can be time consuming therefore they should be kept to a minimum. | Total Contacts | 否 |

Solver
| Statistic | 描述 | Corresponding Profiler Counter (exact name) | Available in Release Players? |
|---|---|---|---|
| World Count | The total number of physics scene that were present in this frame. Each physics scene contains a physics world that can be simulated independently of any other physics world. Having a large number of worlds is not in of itself a performance issue because it will only occupy memory and not perform any work unless it is simulated. | Solver World Count | 否 |
| Simulation Count | The number of times all physics scene were simulated either by Unity automatically, by calling Physics2D.Simulate or by directly calling PhysicsScene2D.Simulate. | Solver Simulation Count | 否 |
| Discrete Islands | An island is a connected graph of bodies connected via mutual joints or mutual contacts. Note that Static body types do not connect islands. The number of contact islands solved when handling the discrete solving step. | Solver Discrete Islands | 否 |
| Continuous Islands | An island is a connected graph of bodies connected via mutual joints or mutual contacts. Note that Static body types do not connect islands. This is the number of islands solved when handling the continuous solving step. Solving continuous islands is an extremely expensive process and involves multiple iterations that require islands to be regenerated and reprocessed so this should be kept to a minimum. Only a Rigidbody2D with a Continuous collision detection mode will result in this additional continuous island being formed and processed. | Solver Continuous Islands | 否 |
Transform Sync
| Statistic | 描述 | Corresponding Profiler Counter (exact name) | Available in Release Players? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sync Calls | The total number of Transform sync calls that were called in this frame. A Transform sync (known as a Transform Read) involves checking to see if any Transforms have changed and if so, the Transform poses are read and cause any Rigidbody2D or Collider2D to be updated. Transforms should not be changed when using physics components however sometimes this is necessary but should be avoided due to potential performance issues if performing too many. Any movements should be performed by using the Rigidbody2D API. The physics system will perform a single Transform sync as the first part of performing a simulation step so this will always be at least one if a simulation occurred (see Simulation Count above). The physics system will also perform a single Transform sync per-frame if it is handling any Rigidbody2D interpolation. Additional calls are shown if either Physics2D.AutoSyncTransforms is active (inactive by default) or if Physics2D.SyncTransforms is called although both of these should be avoided as they can both have a severe impact on performance. |
Total Transform Sync Calls | 否 |
| Sync Bodies | The number of Rigidbody2D that were affected by a Transform sync. This should be kept to a minimum, preferably zero. | Transform Sync Bodies | 否 |
| Sync Colliders | The number of Collider2D that were affected by a Transform sync. This should be kept to a minimum, preferably zero. | Transform Sync Colliders | 否 |
| Parent Sync Bodies | The number of Rigidbody2D that were affected by a Transform sync caused by reparenting a Transform.. This should be kept to a minimum, preferably zero. | Transform Parent Sync Bodies | 否 |
| Parent Sync Colliders | The number of Collider2D that were affected by a Transform sync caused by reparenting a Transform. This should be kept to a minimum, preferably zero. | Transform Parent Sync Colliders | 否 |
Joints
| Statistic | 描述 | Corresponding Profiler Counter (exact name) | Available in Release Players? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total | The total number of any Joint2D that were present in this frame. Solving joints can become expensive so these should be kept to a minimum. | Total Joints | 否 |
Timings
Note: All timings are summed over all physics worlds (see World Count). The number of times any timing was sampled is shown in square brackets after the timing itself. Effectively the timing can be divided by the World Count value to give an average time.
| Statistic | 描述 | Corresponding Profiler Counter (exact name) | Available in Release Players? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sim | The total amount of time spent handling a full simulation step. This can be called by Unity automatically, by calling Physics2D.Simulate or by directly calling PhysicsScene2D.Simulate. This time includes all the stages involved in completing a simulation step including Transform Sync (read), Calculating Contacts, Integration, Solving Contacts and Joints, Transform Write and Contact Callbacks. | 无 | 无 |

| Callbacks | The total amount of time spent processing all callbacks (see Total Callbacks). | 无 | 无 |
Legacy Physics Profiler
You can switch to the Legacy mode to see the older version of the Physics 2D Profiler module, which was the default module in older versions of Unity. To do this, select Legacy from the dropdown menu at the upper-right of the Profiler module’s details pane.
In this mode, you can load and inspect Profiler data that was saved in an older version of Unity. If you switch to this mode to inspect data captured in a newer version of Unity, then the data displayed may be unreliable and inaccurate. It is recommended to always use the Current mode to inspect Physics 2D Profiler data in current versions of Unity.
