does it have any reason if i am comparing 2 apps with each other?

ok source is mxf files, output prores hq both 4k

win10

both apps last versions

3950x 64gb ram

2080 super 8gb

4k, but this doesn't matter because if it will be 1080 it will be the same difference 4 times faster in premiere

MXF is not a codec, but a wrapper, but let's not get into that discussion.

What I can tell you is that Pr, traditionally, has way better GPU performance then Ae. But Ae offers far more control. So if you do basic effect, like Lumetri, I'm not surprised Ae is slower.

Let us know if there are any other questions.

I understand about previews, my question was also about final render time which is 4 times more in ae with same effects. just color correction with lumetri, premiere has ~15fps while final render and ae ~5fps.
