| I doubt it, it’s really hard to benchmark properly. Even if someone claimed they had, I would want really clear details on what they’d done. For example - even on the machine I’m using now, with AE 2020, I’m 99% sure that rendering in the app is about twice as fast as background rendering. I’ve done a few tests, flushed cache, rebooted and done everything I can to try and make sure what I’m seeing is repeatable. But it takes time to do properly, I’m still not certain, and this is just on the same machine. It’s much harder with different hardware. There are a lot of performance benchmarks I’d love to try across different hardware but it would take days of full-time work to really do it properly and I know I don’t have the time or access to hardware! If anyone else does, credit to them :-) -Chris > On 29 Nov 2019, at 2:57 am, Stephen van Vuuren <AE-List@media-motion.tv> wrote: > > I have not found any real meaningful differences in AE caching even PCI vs SATA as other issues seem to drag it down.
