Instanced meshes will reduce the draw call overhead on the CPU but will not reduce the GPU cost. In fact the GPU time can increase when using instancing. Allow me to get a little technical for a moment:

 

This process has to do with the limitations of the CPU vs. GPU and how the API (OpenGL or DirectX) tries to maximize this limitation through batching. Instancing being a special case of batching. With a scene rendered with many small or simple objects each with only a few triangles, the performance is enti
