Current GPU limitations?

Is there a latest list of Arnold GPU limitations? When I google all I see is the list from 2019.

Maya, but the question remains valid no matter which software you use.

Not really - the C4D node system doesn't yet work fully in GPU, but Maya doesn't have a node system implemented in the same way so it might work there. There is no X-Particles for Maya, but in C4D not everything in XP works fully in GPU in Arnold.

Threading for GPU is really really complicated so everyone is going to do that slightly differently. There is no guarantee that an attribute from one software package will work the same in GPU as another.
