GPU idling while ACR Enhance Denoise is running very slow on latest 17.2 version
Copy link to clipboard
Copied
My wife is a real estate photographer that shoots in RAW and makes heavy use of the ACR Enhance + Denoise functionality. (Image sizes = 26MB - 5472 x 3648)
The performance of this feature has never been great - But it has gone worse since about 2 weeks ago - It looks like she updated photoshop and all plugins round about the same time.
It currently takes about 2 minutes per image, but we've seen it sometimes take 15 minutes for 2 images.
She typically does not process more than 20 images at a time - But even when doing only 5 to 10, the same issue is seen.
I haven't tried to downgrade to an earlier version yet, but here are some steps I have tried so far based on other discussions:
- Photoshop, Camera Raw, NVidia studio drivers - All on latest versions
- Confirmed there is no "Acronis Active Protection service" running
- Disabled second GPU completely, but also configured NVidia to use High performance GPU for photoshop and sniffer.exe
- Camera-Raw Tech previews are disabled
- Camera-Raw preferences - Tried enabling full GPU accelaration by enabling the Open/Save option - But this causes GPU accelaration to be disabled due to the GPU running out of memory
- Photos loaded from SSD
- Power management options on performance and laptop plugged in while working
- GPU accelation does not throw an error or get disabled while processing a batch
- Possibly some other steps too
All system specs pasted below.
From what I can tell, the PC has the recommended specs - Even though not a super computer by any measure.
However, when the Enhance feature is running, it basically looks like the entire PC is idling, except for memory consumption.
Attached image shows how CPU and GPU is below 4% utilized.
RAM and GPU RAM usage however is pretty high.
Now, from what I understand, (from this article https://helpx.adobe.com/in/camera-raw/kb/acr-gpu-faq.html#Troubleshooting) the Enhance/Denoise features automatically use GPU - But if the performance is extremely slow, why is GPU not showing any significant use?
Where must I spend money that would make an impact?
If the current CPU and GPU is hardly doing anything, then I'm inclined to think that buying an expensive high-end GPU won't make much of a difference when using this feature.
By the way, are external/desktop thunderbolt connected GPU's advisible?
Will additional RAM or GPU RAM help?
I know for the most part it is stated that these don't help much in performance related issues with Photoshop, but it is the only thing I am seeing being close to maxed out.
What else can I look at to fix the issue?
Is there any available performance benchmarks of this feature to illustrate what can be expected?

Denoise runs entirely in the GPU. It doesn't touch the CPU.
It takes advantage of the newer generation RTX series GPUs, which have "Tensor" cores optimized for AI based tasks. The older GTX series doesn't have this technology, and will always be very slow with Denoise.
An RTX 4060 will denoise your 26 MP files in about 10 seconds.

Thanks @D Fosse ! Really appreciate that insight - Will definitely keep this in mind when shopping for a GPU.
Is there any explanation perhaps as to why the current GPU's utilization basically sits at 0 to 1 % while performing denoise?
I would think that if it doesn't have the necessary cores that is optimized for this type of thing that it would be hammered - But I obviously don't know all the intricacies.
