Depending on what kind of Proc that you have - the renders may go faster if you go in to options -> Preferences -> select the editing tab, and just underneath where the RAM Preview allocation is there should be "threads" selection - setting that to 1 may speed up your renders.

As for the Media Manager - Are you talking about when you install it, or when you open Vegas?

Downgrade back to V5 until V6c is released. I have had nothing but trouble with V6/V6a/V6b so unless you need SDI I/O go back to V5 and be productive. My final attempt to use V6b was on a dual processor 1.8 with Medea RAID storage and 2 gigs of RAM. After waiting 3 hours for V6b to get past the splash screen I threw in the towel and removed it.

you can disable Media Manager in preferences, might help.

I had a similar problem with 6b. Tech Support walked me through a complete uninstall of Vegas and Media Manager and related files. A clean install got Media Manager working again.
