This sounded useful, so I wrote one:

You will need a six-column Excel grid with header rows for Comp Name, Width, Height, pixel aspect ratio, time, and frame rate:
The script presents an area for input like this:
Paste your data from Excel into this area, like this:
Click the “Make many comps” button, and many comps will be made.

What version of Ae are you running? What OS?

If you render from the Ae render queue (to an intermediate format like ProRes or CineForm), and then bring that into AME for compression to .webm, does that work better?

It’s in camera settings, the dialog that pops up when you first create your camera:
If you want to change an existing camera, select the camera layer, then press Ctrl+Shift+Y on a PC (Cmd+Shift+Y on a Mac).

Ae’s sound tools are pretty primitive. You’d be much better off using Audition for this:

You don’t need Adobe’s permission to develop a plugin, but you will need their SDK and a lot of know-how:

The interaction you describe will happen when you’re using an orthographic view (i.e., Front, Top, Left) and have a mix of 3D layers (your precomp) and 2D layers (your text and shape layers).
If that’s not the case, try clearing your cache (Edit > Purge > All memory & disk cache…).

The only settings that will affect your project’s render speed are general disk cache settings (put this on a fast disk, preferably SSD), and the GPU acceleration project settings (which are on by default if you have a supported GPU).

The Ae renderer works very differently than 3D renderers. If you want to get more performance out of a sizzlecore beast like your Z840, check out Mekajiki RenderGarden:
https://www.mekajiki.com/rendergarden/I use this on ours — it works similarly to the old multiprocessing feature in Ae CC 2014 and prior. You do need a lot of RAM, but you can get that big performance boost back on final renders.
