Media Encoder using excessive CPU power during render on M1 Max Mac Studio

Tried switching hard drives, exporting to different locations. Tried both Hardware and Software encoding. CBR and VBR 1 Pass. The issue still persists. Any else experiencing this issue or have suggestions on how to fix it?

I'm not sure what you're asking?

The Media encoder 23.2.1 is exceedingly slow and uses almost 100% of CPU with my Mac Pro 2019.

Do you have an example? I would like to repro on a M1 Max processor.
