How to improve rendering speed with no tricks!

Postby danielwang » Tue Sep 02, 2003 4:50 pm

Have you ever tried using TweakXP, TweakAll or ripoff "System Enhancer" software? With ANY Windows platform, you can do it yourself.

Hit Control-Alt-Delete. On .NET Gundam, 2000, and NT, you'll see "Windows Insecurity". On XP Home and Professional, you get Task Manager. In the first case, just click on "Launch taskmgr.exe" ir "Task Manager" and you're good to go.

Now, make sure that you can see all processes from all users (checkbox below). For optimum effect, run priveleged:
runas /user:Administrator taskmgr.exe
sudo taskmgr.exe

For .NET Gundam users, do NOT use KDE System Offguard to do this, you sick Wine/Cygwin using bastard.

Save your work and quit all unnecessary apps. To stop processes, use:
net stop (servicename)

The magic part: right click, set all of the other processes to below normal priority and set AE or rendering app to Above Normal. If you want AE to be the ONLY thing that the processor thinks about, choose Realtime.

Save often and reboot when done.

If you use Media Studio Pro 7 or Video Studio 7 from ULead, those programs capture, edit, and output in MPEG 2. So there is no rendering if your project is being outputted to DVD.

Actually, using REAL-TIME in any process is a good way to get your PC to freeze or lock up. Tweaking with the processes priority settings only tells windows which application to run with the highest priority. It does not make any application run any "faster". It only puts them first in line in the processing thread so to speak, so you get the illusion that it's working faster when it's just working over everything else. The problems is that not all applications run a on a single binary, so if you prioritize one program it may end up working even slower if it depends on another application. (Like frameserving to Premiere.)

The best option is to simply close any application you don't need and leave your computer the hell alone for awhile until it finishes rendering. If you run into any "not enough virtual memory" problems simply force close explorer and keep working. Sometimes Windows XP starts sucking up memory and resources for no particular reason when working with files (Like when I'm running TMPGEnc with tons of filtering options) so I just blow my desktop the hell away. (Literally)
