JPG Proxies were used for the assembly/online. But render all have been replaced with RAW for a final CC – client did that – I’m just doing the DCP render but have to open/close the file a number of times, save. It takes several minutes to save.
I’m going to do short render test but I’m thinking of charging the client for an SSD drive.

Jesus christ. Buy a mainframe from IBM? Honestly the only thing I can think of is to bake the pics from .raw to JPG proxies.

I’ve got a client supplied AE CS6 project file that is 1.5Gb – takes an hour and half to open. It’s a 37 minute 4K film that I’m creating a DCP. It’s already reduced. It’s created from DSLR pics – 2.6 TB of RAW files.
Any under the hood performance tweaks that might help AE handle the file better? The render machine I have does not have a SSD unfortunately which would help a bit with load times it appears the load is mostly checking the 2.6 TB of RAW files.

A film is – or should be – more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what’s behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later.
