This is a sample project to compare a simple task in "Classic" Unity versus Unity DOTS/ECS:
https://github.com/UnityGameAcademy/DOTSCompare
Several thousand cubes push forward until wrap around the screen. Use the dropdown to change the GameManager's Mode from "Classic" to "ECS Pure" and "ECS Conversion." Future videos will demonstrate how to setup your project in ECS from scratch, but this project highlights the performance benefits.
Note: you will need to build a standalone application to really see the results of DOTS/ECS. On my test machine, Unity could have about 250,000 moving cubes in DOTS versus about 20,000 with "Classic" Monobehaviours.
