The frameserver takes exported frames from one application you're using and sends it to another application to use and process.
If you do it from Premiere, Premiere has to add all the effects you did to each frame before your other application can have access to it. So if you did a two pass, Premiere would basically render your video twice. If it takes 30minutes for Premiere to process your video. If you want to do a two-p1ass encode then it would take well over a hour.
It's better to export to a fast codec with all the frames already rendered and stored. Say if you use huffYUV you have the 30minute export, but if you want to make a VCD, SVCD, two-pass divx/xvid file, then you can do it ALOT quicker since you don't have to wait for Premiere to add all the effects over again.
As for the AVISynth problem, what is the error message you get? Are you using the latest version of AVISynth? What about the AviSynth plugin for Premiere? The latest version of AVISynth has better memory usage... May help... :\
