Hi, I'm new here, I use this software for topography, so I don't use the mesh generation. In this latest version you can see that the software doesn't add many points in the parts that are vegetation, which greatly reduces the processing time, I don't know how it behaves in other types of environments, but in my case the performance has improved a lot, if you have more information about what metashape has done with respect to the hardware, I would greatly appreciate it if you shared it. For bonus I have made another benchmark with overclock on the GTX 1650 and I use the iGPU
