In most cases, mipmaps are not required on UI textures,
so ensure that this Import Setting is disabled on them
unless you specifically require it (for world-space UI,
for instance).

Be sure to disable the Raycast Target option on UI
Graphic elements that don’t need to receive input
events. Many UI elements don’t need to receive input
events, such as the text on a button or non-interactive
images. However, UI Graphic components have the
Raycast Target option enabled by default. Complex UIs
could potentially have a large number of unnecessary
Raycast Targets, so disabling them can save significant
amounts of CPU processing.
