You do not have a performance problem, you have a measurement problem. When every test run starts in a different place, with random AI and random CPU frequencies, your team burns days chasing fake regressions.
A consistent profiling scenario kills that noise. You isolate one worst-case but realistic scene, remove randomness, lock behavior, and stop navigating manually through gameplay just to reach the hotspot.
The proof frame is practical: fixed test positions, frame-time and FPS captures, quartiles for variation, and build-to-build charts pulled through automated runs. Add CPU frequency awareness, ADB-driven test triggers, and reusable reporting, and your profiling stops being guesswork.
Next step: build one deterministic CPS today, run it on target hardware, and compare two builds with the same capture script before any new optimization sprint. If your numbers shift, you now know whether it is code, device state, or thermal throttling.
CEO/Producer translation: deterministic profiling cuts review tax, prevents random panic, and turns optimization into a predictable production pipeline. Unlock the full CPS module and make every performance decision evidence-driven from now on.
