There are many techniques you can use to improve drawing performance of your 3D features and maps, both for display in your 3D environments and for maps served over the Web. A 3D globe or scene that draws quickly will provide a better foundation for GIS analysis and data compilation in the 3D environment and will provide a better user experience.
When using ArcGlobe and ArcScene the most effective way of improving performance to meet your needs is to optimize the layers within the 3D view. The following links will help provide the necessary information to optimize your 3D data and workflows.
