    It'd be great if the Adobe Engineers working with Apple could also address the issue in High Sierra affecting all GPU accelerated graphics/tasks in Adobe apps running on 2016/2017 MacBook Pros with Radeon Pro GPUs, where after the MBP has been asleep long enough to enter standby mode (about 30 minutes usually), GPU performance is severely impacted (more than a 60% drop in performance in my testing) until the next restart.

    This performance impact affects all GPU accelerated tasks in Photoshop, Illustrator, etc - anything that uses Metal, OpenGL, OpenCL - and started in High Sierra. It affects all models of the Radeon Pro GPUs in 2016/2017 MacBook Pros, and is still present in the latest beta (macOS 10.13.2 beta 2).

    While I've submitted this to Apple as radar 34677832, it would be helpful if the Adobe team could investigate this issue with Apple as it's making all Adobe apps perform incredibly badly after sleep, requiring regular restarts just to get back to normal performance.
