  Premiere Pro CS6 and Macbook Pro Retina : Very slow renders

  Posted by Dani Russel on October 24, 2014 at 12:53 am

  This question seems to have been posted before..

  I came from Windows land and have used Premiere since ’97..

  “Let’s try a super spec Macbook and have a mobile editing suite.. Great!”

  I generally work with DSLR footage, H264 codec and .wav files.

  Imports and scrubbing is great, applying effects starts it slowing down and I’ll adjust playback to 1/2 or 1/4 resolution.

  And that’s just on one layer of video..
  Now, when it comes to exporting in general, a 50 second clip takes over 30 minutes to render.

  Very frustrating..

  I mainly export using the existing presets for YoutubeHD and VimeoHD.

  Can’t get my head around why it takes so long and I am hoping that perhaps a re-install or a fundamental preference setting will solve it.

  In my preferences, I’ve allocated 11GB of memory to Adobe Production Suite applications and I rarely run 2 at a time.

  Scratch disks are set to project folders, on a 4GB RAID1 drive connected via Thunderbolt protocol

  Tech specs :

  Processor – 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7

  Memory – 16GB 1600Mhz DDR3

  Graphics – NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB

  Storage – SSD 500GB

  OS – OS X, v10.8.3

  I look forward to hearing back from you and thank you in advance
