A few months back, I updated to an i7 computer with 16gb RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 (2.5gb memory). C: drive is SSD with O/S and Vegas app. project is on X: drive, rendering to Y: drive.
My 24 minute 1920 x 1080 video rendering time went:
FROM= 4+ hours on Vegas 10, no GPU, CPU maxed out
TO= 53 minutes on the system above. CPU at approx 55%, overall memory usage only 4.5gb (out of 16gb)
SUCCESS. This made me very happy.
Having said that, there are a few things that I would like to understand.
MEMORY usage. Why does the app not take more memory? There is plunty for available.
Dynamic RAM Preview max has defaulted to 200mb. I have read on this forum that others have gotten better performance by lowering this value.
Is there a way or a benefit to allowing VEGAS 11 PRO to use more RAM?
