Instancing with copy to points works as expected but when creating packed primitives with Pack node it doesn't work. It's showing like it's using instances but the triangle count is like a single mesh.

Dunno if its a bug or some limitation cause exporting both cases as alembic and testing in Standalone shows the same result.

Why are you packing after the copy SOP? What you need to do is to enable the "pack and instance" option in the copy SOP to pack before copying and let the plugin extract the packed geo as instances.

Thanks,
