We seems to have solved the issue, or at least made it much better.

We installed the RED FCP Studio 3.0 Installer and it seemed to fix the issue.

My render went from over an hour to 9 minutes.

It seems to update many things including QT components.

No idea why this install fixed the issue but I am really glad.

Thanks to everybody that helped.

The plot thickens....

On my Macbook Pro running CS5.5 the file renders in 11 minutes.

On our 12 core OSX workstations the file takes well over an  hour.

I have put the file on DropBox (1.5 GB) if anybody wants to try it.

RedCineX Pro exports the fie in less than a minute on my workstation.

Gonna try AME next.

Phil,

Have you tried exporting via the Adobe Media Encoder?
If you have a certified CUDA or OpenCL card, the scaling should then be done
on the GPU.

This means working in a 5k comp in AE, and then use AME to export to HD.

Or, if you're not doing too much fancy stuff in AE - do the whole thing in
Premiere, and get lots of real-time effects to boot, allowing for even
shorter render times.
