Vision (perhaps) not utilizing GPU on MBP.

[thruvik]

Hi,

 

I am completely fresh user, so pardon if terms are off. 

I have some issues with my Macbook Pro (2019) and Vision. Namely that it does not seem to utilize the GPU properly. 

After adding 15 or so fixtures and having them visible, performance drops to a halt, even moving around in the space is laggy.

 

Looking at my activity manager, I have the following:

(I realise that I managed to cut out the top bar in the screen shot. The columns are as follows: Name/Energy Impact/App nap/Graphics card/Prevent Sleep/User.)

The 'graphics card' column is the most interesting, as it shows 'Yes' for Vectorworks, but 'No' for vision, which I feel support my theory.

 

I have tried to turn off 'automatic graphics switching' with no change in result.

 

Here is the computer information:

 

Am I completely off in my belief that the gpu is not being utilized? Am I just overestimating my computers capabilities? Does anybody have any tips on how to improve performance?
