    Hello, sorry if I spam too much, but is there a way to render in shorter time ? At first, it showed the render would take 9h,but after 4,5h even 1 minute wasn’t rendered. Any solutions ?

    And it stuck’d at 45s, as 1 frame takes nearly 1 minute.

    CPU: AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 965 Processor 3.40ghz 4 cores
    GPU: AMD Radeon R9 200 Series 2048MB
    RAM: 8 GB DDR3 2000MHz+
    Disc: HDD 1TB (400GB free space)
    OS: Windows 7
    After Effects CS6

    and by the way the render failed after 8,30h with only 1 minute rendered.

    What are your memory and multiprocessing settings in Ae? You do not have enough RAM to use multiprocessing effectively. If you have multiprocessing enabled, I’d disable it. I’d also try reserving 4 GB for other applications.

    I had to upgrade to 16GB of ram to alleviate the problem you had. Some effects are really taxing like particles or blurs. Also manipulating embedded large files like photoshop, AI, and pre-rendered videos can slow it down. So if you don’t have enough Ram, your system will hang, and will interrupt the render.

    Simply designs 8GB will work, but once you get into more complex effects and compositions, or start using 3rd party plug-ins, you will need 16GB minimum.

    I have multiprocessing disabled.
    RAM reserved for other applications is 4gb, same with for AAE.
