I can’t provide you with an “objective” opinion (I work at GridIron), but thought I would point out this because of your use of Trapcode…

There are benchmarks for every trapcode plugin on our site. The only one where Nucleo won’t do so well in terms of performance gain is Trapcode “Lux” (its already multi-threaded).

so we’re looking at a potential 80 – 100% time decrease with nucleo on a dual 2.7 ghz system? I already set up the queue without nucleo — i’m timing at around 40 minutes. dang it.

thanks for your input though!

which specific plugs are you using from Trapcode? – I can give you a pretty close estimate…

Heavy particular stuff —
some shine and starglow but they’re cake. particular is a HOG — but it looks so damn good…

(Start Sales Pitch)
Nucleo will fly on Particular. Our benchmarks show you should get a render done in about 40% less time when particular is used with Nucleo. Pretty similar results for Shine and Starglow.

You can download and try it for nothing – it will just watermark things.

Hope all went well with the deadline.
