As a result, running with a Debug build of an application may result in less optimal GPU workloads, for instance. By using the DX12 SetBackgroundProcessingMode API in your game engine in this way during development, your in-game GPU profiler will provide more reliable information.

Using a more specific measurement of real time is more helpful, since the game engine can calculate real time from its (variable) frame time in order to maintain accuracy. Our debug logging keeps tabs on everything in terms of milliseconds so we can see how temporally far apart events in the log fire.
