AE 2023 playback PAINFULLY slow and loggy
Hello,
Ever since I updated to the latest version of After Effects (2023) playback has been PAINFULLY slow. AE has become borderline unusable. Here is a breakdown of the issues I am experiencing (primarily when comping & playing back multilayered EXRs but even a simple mp4 @ 1080 res is slow):
1. RAM previews take FOREVER, even for simple things like playing an MP4 file.
2. Even after a comp is fully rendered (green bar), comps still don't play in real-time.
3. I constantly get a RAM out-of-memory error. I have 128GB of RAM...
4. I often hit the spacebar and nothing happens.
5. Changes in comp don't appear unless I restart the program.
6. Overall, the program is super buggy, slow, freezing and even crashing.
7. RAM preview gets halfway through a comp and jumps back to the beginning of the comp
