How are my GPU resources exceeded?

Hi,

I am trying to load a large multipatch into ArcGIS Pro.  It was converted from a dwg that represents a ground surface with approx 230k faces.  ArcGIS Pro will not draw the entire thing and shows an error about GPU resources exceeded, however looking at task manager this does not appear to be the case.  Can someone from Esri please explain how this is calculated, and what we can do about it?

This confirms it is using the dedicated AMD graphics not the Intel chip:

OK glad clearing the cache fixed the problem with the excessive drawing popup.

 

Your machine should be more than capable of running Voxel layers, so I'm at a loss at what could be wrong there. 

One thing to check is that you're using DirectX in display options - early releases that supported Voxel layerse didn't work with OpenGL - the Scene Layers team has fixed that in 2.7.  Additionally the upcoming 2.8 release has some fixes for layout display of Voxel layers, and some were back-ported to 2.7.2, so make sure you're on the latest release to pick up these changes.

Looks like I'm on version 2.7.1, so maybe that's part of the issue. I don't know whether my university will update the software anytime soon. Still, seems strange that I can at least see part of my data on my laptop, and not on my desktop.

Anyway, thanks for your time 🙂

If you continue to have issues, might be good to get in touch with Esri support so they can more interactively troubleshoot.

Did you ever figure this out?  I was drawing time cubes fine a few weeks ago.  Got a new machine and I cannot get Pro to use much of my GPU.  I cannot even get anything to draw on the screen now.  Tried two different computers and every setting and driver I can think of.   i9, 64 GB or RAM, 32 GB video ram should be plenty.  Second machine has a NVDA 5000 in it with 64 ram and 32 video ram also.

I does not seem to be culling at all.  No matter where I zoom to it will start drawing the bottom left corner of the extent.  

Not sure what changed on me.  I did a few cool demos, people got excited, and now I am stuck.

And now it went black on me.

Hi Doug, this is another case where interactively troubleshooting with Esri Support might help get you to an answer more quickly.  The advice in the "GPU REsources Exceeded" help topic (it is linked from the notification) is a good starting point though.
