I own a new 2016 15" MacBook Pro with all the CPU and GPU options. Just trying D mode now in a headshot edit that has a lot of pre-existing edits. I was expecting the new GPU (AMD Radeon Pro 460) to elevate this to a new level of speed in D mode. Instead it is utterly unusable, far slower than with CPU alone (using integrated graphics) or even the the integrated graphics processor on my 2015 13" MBPr.
Massively disappointing. Why keep such an expensive upgrade if I don't get a speedup in my editing processing? I will have to see whether the CPU alone gives me a speedup but I'm not optimistic.
Please advise whether any of you are having similar experiences. I'm actually torn now about whether to keep this expensive upgrade of a machine.
