When is an ArcGIS PRO Project too big? What is your practice on managing the theme, complexity, connections and purpose of project files? I have practiced limiting my projects to themes and AOIs but Then I end up with many projects with few maps and a few projects with many maps. I am sure there are limitations, but I have not hit many. When the project gets slow or off subject I start a new project.
One measure is the size of the Display Cache. I do clear the cache regularly when performance becomes an issue . I also frequently clear the %TEMP%
