Our details layer is very.....detailed. We have simplified them as much as we can but the level of detail and the area each floor covers is proving to have a significant impact on performance.  

Does anyone have any additional tips on how to increase performance when drawing details?

Here is what I currently are implementing:

  • I serve our details up from a File Geodatabase.  We found this is much more performant than an Enterprise Geodatabase
  • I merge all details together by discipline and by floor.  So, all Architectural details on Level 1 are merged, all Furniture on Level 1 are merged, etc.
  • The merged details are then diced with a vertex limit of 10,000
  • Details are set with a display scale on the web map

despite all this, I still get a significant amount of complaints about the performance of details.  Any other tips or suggestions would be much appreciated.

One thing I found that helps is (similar to your strategy with a FGDB) having the details in a hosted feature layer rather than a feature service referencing data in a geodatabase.

Update:  Users are reporting better performance using a Hosted Feature Layer but it still lags.  Any other tips?
