// Makes sure that RecalculateValue only performs
// some operations once per frame and no more.
static private var lastRecalculation = -1;

	if (lastRecalculation == Time.frameCount)
		return;
	//	ProcessData.AndDoSomeCalculations();
}
using UnityEngine;

public class ExampleClass : MonoBehaviour { private static int lastRecalculation = -1; static void RecalculateValue() { if (lastRecalculation == Time.frameCount) return; } }
