Thank Kory - let me know if you hear anything.  Our jurisdiction is watershed based with over 2000km2 of large scale data. Rendering speed is always lightning fast which is why I rolled it out for my users.  I didn't anticipate all the UI hangs, or whatever is happening. ... View more

 Sure you can grab a copy of the empty project here Dropbox - Demo_Corrupt_Layout.aprx  It doesn't really exhibit noticeable issues until you add a few dozen layers.  Doesn't seem to matter if it's local or network data.  It gets progressively worse with more layers. The most common issue I would face with this project is UI hangs. For example I would get 30-45 seconds of UI greyout after doing something like "make this the only selectable layer".  Drawing speed has always been fine. Once the layout is completely removed from the project the issues are gone. I hope this helps a bit with your research.  I would appreciate a follow-up if possible. ... View more

Just to chime in - in my case I was having similar issues. I access all data over the network. I finally discovered that my layout must have had a corrupt element. This seemed to affect many aspects of the software even when not working with the layout. I simply exported the layout from catalog, deleted the layout from catalog, then reimported and now the software is working really well.  I hope this might help someone. ... View more

thank you Dan.  For clarification, my end-users are used to simply moving MXD files around and placing them anywhere on the network. our central geodatabases are always in the same place on a network share (i.e. W:\GIS_Databases\database1.gdb). In ArcMap the data sources would remain intact when the MXD is moved.  Now they are doing the same thing with APRX files and wondering why the data sources are broken. From a long term data management point of view, this could be a problem for me if directories with many APRX files need to be moved.  The central geodatabases will never move, only APRX files. ...
