Just to pull us back to topic...

...I wish we could get some form of official response from Adobe After Effects team on this.

Adobe's lack of response to this, or other matters that don't suit them, is a clear indication of their lip service approach to customer care. Adobe user voice : a great idea if you take notice of the feedback - and totally frustrating for the user when you ignore the very opinions you have asked for. The top 'multithreading / multicore request Greg references has the best part of twice as many votes as any other. The response from Adobe: ZERO. Yet, they are quite capable of responding when it suits them.

This is not a complaint against Victoria at all. We all know these policies are set way up the hierarchy.

I just hope (and it's a very slim hope, I know) that these sorts of threads might remind the powers to be that it's their customers that ultimately make their business - and that this approach, sooner or later, is going to bite them in the ass.
