I have the following notification in the lower right corner of the SolidWorks window. I'm not finding an option to "Enable performance pipeline" under Options > Performance.
Is this setting found somewhere other than Options>Performance?
Maybe I'm looking right at it and not seeing it.
SolidWorks 2022, SP5.0. Graphics card is an Nvidia Quadro M4000.

The option is actually called Enhanced graphics performance (requires SOLIDWORKS restart). It is the last option at the bottom in Performance. Depending on your graphics card your mileage may vary, a lot of uses here have had to turn it off due to issues.

Thanks. I thought that might be the case. Maybe a programmer didn't catch all the instances when doing a find/replace.

Here's that option. As you can see, I have it turned off. There has been an extraordinary variety of issues reported by users in the last few years that have been solved by turning that off.

They changed the name a few times.

Thanks for sharing your settings, trying them out.

This option actually slows down the rebuilding performance on different systems, in our case more than 10%
