[Peter Price] “I just found it puzzling that it was happening to both AJA and BMD IO.”
Actually, that’s what actually points back to the GPU (or maybe just the general configuration of the MBPro) for me…
Adobe does clearly support the GPU since you get some performance boost when you aren’t handing off frames to an external device.
Handing off to an external device with GPU-processed frames isn’t a low-resource operation…and it’s a dual core laptop with a 9 hour battery life.

If the CPU (Mercury Software) engine solves the problem, I would investigate whether Mercury transmit (the system for handing off frames from the GPU to an SDI or Thunderbolt, etc peripheral) might be too demanding for an integrated GPU?

Yeah…Adobe ran out of keymaps in PPro some time ago…moving ripple/roll and slip/slide to the same key, toggled with a Ctrl or Alt (Cmd or Opt) modifier would probably free some keys up.
Personally, I’ve submitted feature requests to have some of these functions be modal against the select tool…release the modifier and back to the select tool…but again, that would only be modal against the mouse.
Adobe has been working rather feverishly over the last 4 versions to evolve Premiere Pro to a point where FCP and Avid users find it easier to adapt to…but Adobe Premiere has been around as long as Avid and it came from a -totally- different place. FCP came along later and basically had Avid in its sights, so the Avid to FCP migration was an easier changeover than the switch to Premiere Pro has been for the same user base.

You can build you’re own hotkey map if you don’t have one that meets your needs.
It’s all in what you’re accustomed to I suppose… ripple/roll edit and slip/slide are on four keys B-N and Y-U.
The mouse is modal with the default tool…over an edit it’s regular trim unless you use the Ctrl key and you then have a rolling edit or a ripple trim depending on how far from the cut you hover..

It sounds like the license reverts back to trial mode…there is a fix that Adobe has put up for it…

[Steve Brame] “…a friend in Germany that says he’s sent 24fps footage all the time from shoots in the US, and it works fine.”
Typically a 24<->25fps retiming involves a 4% pitch change in the audio…in Premiere Pro, I’d simply modify the clip’s framerate, and you’re done.
No idea what FCPX does…

If you disable “RealTime Scanning” on McAfee, the updates should work…that was my problem anyway.
As far as sluggish…any other software that might be taking system resources in the background?

Joshua,
Are you running McAfee virus protection?

The presets that are labeled for Vimeo, YouTube, and BluRay, etc…is there a reason why you would assume those are -not- optimized for the service they’re named after?
And your 50 Mbit data rate wouldn’t have much effect on YouTube or Vimeo, they transcode anything that is not in their spec…so your video is probably being transcoded by YouTube to a specification similar to the YouTube preset.

[Anthony Paglia] “Thanks Tim, is that a codec that you can import into premiere? “
Yes…I also use it for AE renders frequently.
