This switch has nothing to do with the GPU.</P><P></P><P>Your operating system and/or GPU vendor should provide tools to control how the GPU uses memory.</P><P></P><P>Hope this helps,</P><P>Simon</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 07 May 2019 14:29:10 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-cityengine-questions/gpu-settings/m-p/333589#M4610 SimonHaegler 2019-05-07T14:29:10Z
