Experiments Pane
In the Experiments pane, you can isolate potential performance bottlenecks in your application by modifying render states of Graphics API.
NOTE:
You can only perform experiments if metrics data is available for your target system; otherwise, the Experiments pane is hidden from view.

2x2 Textures Identifies potential performance bottlenecks caused by texture maps used in your application. All sampling textures for a scene are replaced with 2x2 texture containing four different colors. |

Simple Pixel/Fragment Shader Replaces every pixel/fragment shader with the pixel/fragment shader that writes a constant color to all render targets. |

1x1 Scissor Rect Bypasses pixel processing from the rendering pipeline: if the frame rate does not increase when this experiment is enabled, then a complex geometry or vertex shader is a bottleneck. |

Disable Event(s) Keeps the selected events from being rendered. This experiment can help you test scene efficiency. |

Shading Rate Adjusts the shading rate for the selected resource, which can help identify objects that could be rendered with less quality without noticeable visual impact. |
