I think not unless you have enormous power. Also i believe the codex in Cineform is better than the Vegas version (this may have changed in 8). I don't think intermediaries will be out until we have Vegas 64 bit and very fast 64 bit machines and super fast scsi hdds.

Why is that? You can now use GearShift 1.7 to make DV Proxies for AVCHD files.
