Why is ArcGIS Pro so slow to do anything?
I was asked to re-post a message I had posted elsewhere here to help add to this discussion.
I generally like the direction PRO is headed in but is anyone else experiencing terrible performance - just doing normal tasks locally?
I'm attaching Two screenshots, one showing my system specs, and the other one showing my GPU specs. My original post also had a third screenshot of my task manager at the time I was working. Unfortunately that shot was lost when moving this message to this thread. The Task Manager image showed my CPU at about 65%, My RAM at about 50% and my GPU at roughly 80%. The screen shot of my task manager was taken while I have two instances of ArcGIS Pro running. In one instance I changed labeling properties for a layer. In the other instance I was zooming to a new extent. This initiated the spinning wheel indicating that PRO is working....
ArcGIS Pro has been in this state for over 5 minutes now with the task manager running this hard.
Granted - my maps ARE feature and graphics intensive, BUT I could perform this same operation with two instances of ArcMap on a slower machine in about 3-4 minutes. PRO should be faster than ArcMap, not slower.
Is anyone else experiencing this? I don't want to have to send all of my data to ESRI and work with technical support to find out simply that they replicate the problem... I sincerely want ArcGIS PRO to perform like the next generation GIS platform. As I mentioned above, I do like the general direction they are heading with respect to PRO but I am extremely frustrated with migration when not only was the transition somewhat less than intuitive, but now after migration of my workflows I'm finding myself LESS productive than I was on ESRI's old product on a less capable computer.
