I'm having some hangups with octane instancing - the ipr basically stalls out when trying to preview the instanced geo.

There is about 540k+ points with orient, pscale and v on them. The geo has about 500 faces. @instancepath is setup to point at a null in the same obj sop.

I have not been able to get an image to load up on a 3090. Any advice or best practices to make this work?

The instance node previews some of the instanced geo then fades into bboxes so the path seems to be working.

Instead of @instancepath did you try using the s@instance option using a wrangle? Usually works much better for me than anything else.

If you can upload the base scene, I'll check what happens with 2x3090.
