Adobe Premiere running slow

I've migrated from an 08 MacPro, running 10.6.8 with 6 Gb of RAM onto a MacMini i7 running 10.8.3 with 8GB of RAM.  Benchmark, the processor is supposed to be about 2.5 times faster than the MacPro.  Obviously I have more and faster RAM.
I'm running not only the same CS6 software, but the same CS6 Premiere project that has been shortened.  All the material is on the exact same drives (all Seagate BackupPlus USB 3.0 drives), through the same external hub.  It was only USB 2.0 on the MacPro, a few of the drives, the ones with the most content, are coming in on USB 3.0 to the Mini.   Exporting what was an hour long project to export on the MacPro has turned into a 6 hour ordeal, slowly creeping up one percent every few minutes.  At 82%, its too far along to quit and yet its too slow to be functional in the long term.  But it gives me time to write on a different computer.
On this Mini, I have experienced drives going to sleep, even though I have the instructions in Energy Saver set to never go to sleep.  I even have installed "KeepDriveSpinning" yet I still hear the drives going to sleep and occasionally waking up.  I don't know why, or how.  Maybe that is the problem.  I've had lots of spinning beachballs.  I've relaunched the Finder several times, each time seems to add an additional percent to the total and shortens the ETA.  Problem is the ETA has been less than an hour for over 3 hours.
No other programs are running.  Internet is off.  On the Mac Pro, I used to have several big programs running.  It would only have problems when I did an export
But under controlled conditions, the only two things I can think of that are different are the computer; the Mac Mini supposedly being better; and the OS on that computer, 10.8 vs 10.6
I've found the https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3521 article.  I'll try to figure out those tests afterI get this render done, sometime in the wee hours of the morning at this rate.

Nothing "Green" about them.  PN:  1DXAN5-570
By the way, it did take 9 hours to complete the 1 hour job described above.  Restarted a couple of times, but every step, even looking at the Utilities folder above, that involves a hard drive happens in slow motion.  It took almost 30 seconds for the various Application icons to reveal after opening the Utilities folder.  I've never seen a Mac so slow doing that basic function.  And this thing is brand new.

  • Adobe Premiere CC slow in response

    Hi,
    I recently upgarded to Adobe Premiere Pro CC and I notice that it is very slow in response and there is like 10 seconds lag for every step I do. I notice my computer goes up to 30 percent of workload. The problem arises when I am going from one sequence to another sequence, it lags or copy something in a sequence and then it lags. I have been using CC for 4 months and I did not have a problems with CS6. But this really annoys me.
    My computer specs:
    CPU i7-920 3.6gHz OC
    48 GB of RAM @ 1466Mhz
    Quadro K5000 with latest drivers
    5x2TB at RAID 5
    250gb OS SSD around 140 free space
    120gb SSD - Around 40 free.
    My cache drive was 120gB SSD, even I change the cache drive to RAID5 drives, it doesn't make a difference.
    Now, when I export to render to Adobe media encoder, it takes 10sec. It used to take a sec to do that with CS6.
    Is there something I could change in the settings that would make premiere pro faster in response?
    I am looking forward for your reply.

    I am having the same problem!  Interestingly my Sony VAIO Duo 13 Ultrabook is pretty light on it's feet with Premiere but my custom built NLE frequently runs into these problems.
    The result is that I can often load a project faster in the ultrabook and some projects I can actually edit faster!!?  The ultrabook has a satisfyingly powerful Corei7 but no serious graphics capabilities to speak of, so rendering is software only and it bogs down a lot when working with compressed formats like AVHCD.  I got it just to use it's Wacom digitizer for Photoshop and Illustrator but on my last video, I got frustrated with my desktop NLE machine and cut it on my tiny laptop.  (Did it in the car on a road trip.  Fun to be able to!  But vastly less than ideal for anything very professional.)
    My problem is that Once my desktop NLE is running, it can churn through very complex native editing like a dream.  It's just that every time I need to change what the program is doing, it takes an exceedingly long time to load new components of the program, i.e. bringing up an effects panel or the audio mixer.  My assumption is that once everything the program needs is loaded into ram, there is no problem, but the program is somehow interfering with computers reading and writing to the C: drive where the program is held.  Maybe it is creating is some issue with ram caching to the C: drive that is slowing things down.  After working with Premiere the problem persists and it takes equally long to open other programs.  I had similar problems this summer with the CS6 AVHCD bug in this thread.  This is not as bad, but seems very similar in its manifestation.  There is no longer any connection to any one codec.  Instead, the problem seems to emerge as Premiere has been running for a while.  Or after opening Premiere, closing it and then reopening with out a system restart in between.  A project imported from Final Cut Pro 6 via XML was particularly problematic, but the problem is sporadic so it was hard to tell if it was that or just a couple of bad days.
    Any help or advice would be very much appreciated.

    Not sure by what "getting very slow"or "I always have to render that project" means but I assume you are having less than stellar performance.
    What version of Premiere, what is the footage you are working with, what effects, if any, are you applying, what are you trying to get done?
    I have an EVGA GTX760, i7 4771, 32GB and I have no performance issues in Premiere CC 2014.2. Renders are about 3-5% slower than CC but editing is real time with no issues.

  • Why does Adobe Premiere CS6 slow playback after importing some audio?

    Adobe Premiere CS6.0 v6.0.2
    Mac Pro:
    1, 4 core - 3.2ghz CPU
    16gb ram (4 sticks of 4gb @ 1066 MHz)
    1 Tb dive with OS/Apps on
    2Tb 7200 RPM media drive
    ATI Radeon HD 5770
    Sequence:
    30Fps
    1920x1080
    Media:
    mostly .MFX files from a Canon XF100 however these clips commonly play nice with Premiere.
    Issue:
    After importing some audio clips (.wav/.mp3, possibly other extensions) to the timeline on occasion the video playback will become choppy and the audio will slow down 3% creating any voices in the video to become deeper and slows down.  Choppy video playback as well.  The problem is very annoying but  it can be temporarily fixed with a computer restart but it will come back.
    Things to note:
    Creating a rendered ID (Exporting the movie out to a .mov) the slowed choppy video does not appear in the final movie.
    Temp. Solution:
    The only way I can fix this problem is by restarting the computer.  Simply restarting Adobe Premiere and closing any non-essential applications does not fix the problem.
    Any ideas on how to fix this are much apperciated.

    Try converting your MP3 to AIFF ,QT or something else Macs like. See if that helps.

  • Premiere runs slow while AE is also running. Memory settings?

    Running the latest builds of CC 2014 - Premiere and After Effects. I've noticed on my new machine that when both programs are running, so I can easily switch between the two particular when working with Dynamically linked comps, that Premiere's playback becomes miserably slow and un-productive. Even simple :03 title templates that are dropped into the Pr sequences won't even play back realtime. As soon as I quite AE, Premiere works very smoothly.
    I have 32GB installed in my new Mac Pro – so I must have my settings such that it is not distributing the memory properly to each of these programs. Or, perhaps there is a deeper issue.
    Under the Memory panel I have RAM reserved for other applications set to 16GB. And I've set Optimize rendering for "Performance".
    I appreciate the thoughts...

  • Adobe flashplayer running slow on Talk Talk home page. Works OK if I switch to Internet Explorer.

    Talktalk homepage becomes slow to respond and generates a message stating that Adobe flash player being made to run slow by some content. Works OK if I switch to Internet explorer as suggested by Talk talk technical.

    I have stated what I was able to glean from the report. If you disagree so be it.

  • How will Adobe Premiere run on Apple MacBook Pro MC373LL/A ?

    The specs are listed at: http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/specs/macbook-pro-core-i7-2.66-aluminum- 15-mid-2010-unibody-specs.html
    Can anyone confirm that Adobe Premiere will run on this computer, and if there are any performance problems?

    It depends on what you are doing with it.  With only a dual core processor, if it only has the default 4 GB of RAM, a lousy 5400rpm drive, and an older nVidia GPU with only 512 MB of video RAM (no GPU Hardware MPE acceleration) i doubt if you would be happy with the performance.  Maybe Premiere Elements might work.

  • Adobe programs running slow

    I recently bought the Adobe Creative Suite CS2 for my 12" Mac Powerbook G4 and when I am working in the programs it responds really slow. Is there a way to make it respond faster? Do I need to buy an extra hard drive or more memory or ram? Any information would be great!

    Hi, Generally the more memory (RAM) you have, the faster CS will work.
    Performance is also linked to processor speed, dual processors tend to be faster as CS is geared for dual processing.
    Closing other applications whilst running CS will also help.
    You can also create a scratch disc for CS under Photoshop> preferences>plugins and scrach discs, this creates a temporary space on your hard drive for CS to use, again speeding things up.
    The main point being more RAM=more speed.
    Hope this helps.

  • Upgraded nVidia GeForce 8800GTS Driver--Premiere Runs Slow Now

    For four years, I was running the same nVidia driver and Premiere and other apps ran fine.
    Recently though, a project I'm working on for a client required me to add some new fonts to my workstations. Adding these fonts, or any fonts at all, would work fine until the next reboot, at which point Windows XP would just BSOD with a fault in win32k.sys. A partition restore was necessary to bring back useful system.
    After some research, it was suggested that I update the video driver. I did this, installing the current 285.58 version after uninstalling the old version, rebooting, then doing a clean installation. That solved the font problem--I can install fonts and reboot and the system comes up fine. But there's a new problem: GUI acceleration is disabled in Adobe and Quark applications.. The GUI takes several seconds to paint the screen now, and I cannot play video in Premiere anymore without severe sluggishness and dropping of most of the frames. Even QuarkXpress 8 is unusable, taking 6 seconds to paint just the rulers around a page! Any time I move something, the system refuses to accept input and the mouse pointer freezes and stutters for several seconds until the screen is done repainting.
    I haven't seen these sort of problems since 1990, when I had my Diamond Speedstar VGA card on ISA 8-bit bus.
    Does anyone know of a fix for this problem, or what is the most recent Adobe approved nVidia 8800 driver version? I can't work like this. But I can't install the fonts my client needs when the old driver is installed because of the BSOD after rebooting.

    Mark,
    Though I have personally not had issues with new drivers, I always try to keep a few nVidia drivers tucked away, just in case. However, and from time to time, others have hit upon "bad" drivers, and either a roll-back, or patience, until a new "good" driver is released, has helped them.
    I also do not update my nVidia drivers all that often, and usually only when I begin experiencing a problem.
    Good luck, and that BSOD is scary. While most BSOD's are hardware related, a system driver certainly CAN cause them too. On my workstation, all that I can recall HAVE been triggered by drivers, and most of those for something like a Maxtor external. I do not use their "one-button backup" function, but the drivers for that do get installed, and sometimes act up. I suppose that was once a good idea, but has bitten me a few times in the past.
    Good luck, and wish that I had something that would help you. Please report how things go.

  • Premiere runs slower after 2014 and OSX updates

    Question: Has anyone experienced a decrease in performance after updating to the 2014 versions on their CC software? I recently updated this and my Mac's OS to Mavericks. I would like to narrow down the field in order to discover what is causing this problem.
    System info:
    Footage Info: 2 cameras - Panasonic GH3 and Nikon D7100, 1920x1080 29.97p, h.264 .mov files
    Project: Series of 11 videos ranging from 3 - 4 minutes.
    Includes:
    Interviews on green screen (possible issue, I address this further down)1 - 3 interviews per video with 2 cameras for each interview. Cameras have separate comps = 2 dynamically linked comps per interview resulting in 2 - 6 comps with keyed footage
    Standard broll, intro/outro/lower third screen comps linked with AE
    1 audio track, premixed with interview audio and music
    Problem: Since updating my version of OSX as well as my CC software I have had a significant decrease in performance when editing in Premiere Pro with dynamically linked AE comps. The performance issue ranges from the program monitor taking minutes to update after adjusting effects or scrubbing through the timeline (or just clicking on a new point to see the single frame previewed) all the way to my computer freezing or even PP restarting itself (never happened to me before). Also, export times have increased exponentially. Prior to these updates I was able to export a 4 minute video with multiple dynamically linked comps in around 30 minutes. After updating it is taking over 4 hours to export a 3 minute video with similar effects.
    Possible causes/items for discussion:
    The 2014 update added new effects to Keylight in AE (what I used to key the footage).Also this is the first project I have done using keyed footage through dynamically linked comps. Does the Keylight effect require significantly more power to operate?
    I am working with projects that I had started prior to the 2014 update. Normally I would not have updated mid project, but with increased benefits to Keylight as well as adding the ability to edit dynamically linked lower third text directly from PP (huge time saver), I decided it was worth it.
    Extra notes:
    I also added another monitor to my system recently. Could this have something to do with it?
    After this issue I plan on acquiring the proper transcoding software and updating my workflow to rule those out in the future. I will also consider alternatives to working with dynamically linked comps. However, at this point I am purely interested in feedback regarding similar situations or suggestions as to what I could try to address this issue. Thank you for your input.

    I spent more time looking into this and think I may have found a solution to my problem! This has been an extremely frustrating week for me and the performance issue has affected delivery to the client, so I wanted to post what I discovered here in case anyone else is hunting for this answer.
    I found another thread that addressed the issue of working with comps in PP (Re: After effects CC on maverick slow render because of PP CC Dynamic Link Footage). They refer to it as power nap in that thread but I think what he meant was "App Nap" which limits resources to certain apps when they are not in use. There is more information here (How to Disable App Nap in OS X Mavericks - TekRevue). Preventing app nap seems to have sped things up for me. I am going to try exporting now and see if that goes any faster.

  • Premiere Pro and Adobe Media Encoder running slow

    Hello everyone,
    I'm having trouble with CS4, which is running significantly slower than CS3 did on a older machine. The CS4 suite is installed on a Dell Precision M6400:
    Windows Vista 64-Bit
    Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T9400 @ 2.53 GHz
    8 GB RAM
    NVIDIA Quadro FX 2700M Graphics with 512MB dedicated memory
    The OS is running on a 57.5 GB HD (C:) and the Adobe suite is installed on a 298 GB Solid State HD (D:), except for Adobe Media Encoder, which is installed on the C: drive.
    My project has 4 15-16 minute sequences. The sequences are in DV NTSC, 29.97 fps,  My scratch disks are set to a folder on the C: drive. Media Cache Files and the Media Cache Database points to a folder on the D: drive.
    These are some of the problems I'm having:
    - Premiere Pro CS4 generates peak files every time I open a project
    - It then takes 3-5 minutes to render before I can preview a 16-minute sequence
    - Adobe Media Encoder takes 5 hours to render a 16-minute sequence (as flv) that has been previously rendered
    - AME takes 1 hour to render every 15 minute sequence that has never been rendered before
    Are my settings affecting their performance? Is there any way to improve it? Thanks.
    (Premiere Pro is the only app that is slow)

    The data rate for replay is one thing, the data rate from disk to memory then from memory to CPU and back the other way are different matters and ought not to be confused. It is well-established that for a computer to edit AVCHD you need top end components, and note that I said there were three tasks to distinquish with increasing hardware requirements, namely merely replaying the video, specifying edits in the editor and then the rendering. It is commonly accepted by all the industry vendors that to do remotely commercial AVCHD rendering you need a minimum Quadcore CPU then that eats data fast, in order to not let it go to waste you need a fast motherboard bus fast memory and in order for none of those to go to waste you need the fastest disk set-up you can manage. I in fact have a 4-disk RAID0 volume using SATA (I think the disk model is SATAII but I have to await return from the repair center before I can confirm). For this RAID0 volume I have run speed test software from BlackMagic because I have one of their HDTV capture cards. It recorded that this volume which remember is doing parallelised IO is just fast enough to receive a encoded HDTV stream from the BlackMagic card but too slow to receive an uncompressed HDTV stream, indeed when I tried both I found the volume did keep up with compressed but fell behind with uncompressed. Remember that with a RAID0 volume of 4 SATAII disks a given file gets spread over the four disks and hence IO is spread over those 4 3G/s data lanes. Also remember with these disks 3G/s is just a burst speed, for AVCHD we are interested in sustained serial IO which is much less.
    Before my machine broke down, I found that it took 5 hours to render 33 minutes of HDTV albeit as it went along it transcoded from AVCHD to a Microsoft HD format for Vista-only. Another interesting thing is that I found that the longer this render ran the slower it became, the estimated time started at 3 hours but the actual was five and the last one third took maybe 3 hours. Because the machine broke after that run I couldn't figure the bottleneck. For my machine bear in mind that at the repair shop we found that the Quadcore had only half the necessary electrical power plugged in, the monitor software showed however that it constantly ran around 90% of whatever capacity that reduced power supply permitted. Now then we can puzzle over why it got slower and slower and yet CPU consumption remained consistent and near to full capacity, memory was not the bottleneck because that was constant at 6.4G. But you can say that this was maybe performing like a Dualcore and was hitting some sort of wall, if you had a 1 hour render with that rate of degeneration of performance factored in what would happen to the render time, and for 3 hours you could be running indefinitely. I hope when the machine comes back the correct power supply will make it behave like a Quadcore should for this type of application. Anyway I have two theories for the degradation. First is just that PrProCS4 was getting its knickers in a twist and thereby just doing more computation per minute of video to be rendered as time went by, maybe internal resource management related to OO-type programming maybe, or related to disk IO falling behind, both these theories have problems, for the latter the CPU usage should then have dropped also.
    Anyways, you need really a Quadcore system and blazing fast disk to work fully with AVCHD commercially, we found an external SATAII disk so if I were you I would just go get one and move on with your life.

    For AVCHD you MUST have FAST disks.
    AVCHD actually has a lower data date than DV. You need lots of CPU muscle, but disk speed is really not a factor specific to AVCHD. Anything that works for DV will work just as well for AVCHD (and HDV as well).
