Thanks Graham for those thoughts, but I’m actually interested in whether anyone else but me sees these kind of render performance issues with nested projects.

I get that nested projects are proxy files and need to be rendered, but I fail to see why the nested project rendering should sub-optimally use the CPU. This just seems like a bug.

And I do understand the work-around of first rendering the child project and then importing that render into the parent project timeline (it’s what I do to avoid the problem).

The link in my original post is to two very simple VP projects. Render the child project and note the elapsed time. Then render the parent project (which includes the child as a nested project) and note the time.

If this is just a known Vegas thing, then fine. But I’d like to know that it’s not just something weird with my hardware or settings.

Thanks.

Jeff
