Thanks for your suggestions. Great advice. I’ll look into bumping up my RAM to 24GB.
After doing some more playing around, I went back to an earlier version of my comp and added the same effects that existed in my final version. What is strange is that this new version will now render in about 30 minutes (instead of the 9 hours). This leads me to believe that something is corrupted in my file.
Is this ‘normal’ for AEP files to become corrupted like this? If so, what techniques can be used to uncorrupted them?
Thanks,
Shawn
