Slow working Premiere Pro

[Tim Kolb]

Well…of course there is an After Effects forum here at the Cow where you’ll find help very fast, but I suspect the issue is that your system is just plain starved for RAM so AE has to start disk-swapping instructions that should cache to RAM.

If you want to run AE on a W7 64 system, I’d operate with 16 GB of RAM for CS5, but since you’re on CS4, I’d at least step up to 8 GB so AE can at least max out with the 4 GB it can use…right now you’re splitting up 4 GB of RAM between a resource-hungry OS and who knows what else.

You’d probably also benefit from a display card upgrade for Open GL previews…that card appears to have been specifically designed for gaming.

Thanks for the prompt reply,

That does make sense, I had no idea I’d have to go 8gig + though!

I’ve been searching for workarounds but that does seem like the most appropriate solution.

Thanks again,
