After the 2019 update, render preview has become extremely slow, even with a high performance workstation.

Having the same problem, all rendering extremely slow, in ME as render or export from PP19. Just realized it's an AE file used as an overlay creating the fuss.
Instead I exported the AE-file to an mp4 and now it's working again.

After Effects has this same problem, ever since the new update, my RAM preview takes minutes to load single frames of normal video at quarter resolution. I've done everything I can to try and speed things up but the program is unusable. Audio doesn't have any trouble but I simply can't play video files at all.

most probably the most expensive ways to get frustrated!

I cannot see any preview...or sometimes Premiere will tease me with a preview of a clip 30 seconds earlier! And "media pending" yellow screen of deaths.....
This was frustrating in 2018CC but somehow Premiere always got up to speed and I could build videos. I never could that Premiere uses my GeForce GTX 1060 GPU. Until the 2019 update told me that my driver is outdated...so, I happily downloaded the latest driver 417.22. Then after updating to 2019 and new GPU driver, Premiere absolutely refused to show anything in the playback window. Not even a glimpse 30 seconds later.
My rig is a Surface Book 2, i7-8650, 16GB RAM, GeForce GTX 1060 with Driver dated 12 March 2018. I did delete all the cache, I did start a brand new project, brand new sequence, and I did import my video clips into the brand new project/sequence....nothing worked. I changed preview to custom and to QuickTime...nothing...I did right click and replace with AE (that seems to work most of the time), but the moment I move or cut or import new clip...preview stops.

Hey guys, anybody having latency and abnormaly slow performance in Jan 2019? I'm getting tired of this expensive yet awful experience editing in premier pro. I have a Dell XPS 15 7th gen i7 nvidia 1050. I used to edit 1080 footage with no problems and now it's like I was editing 4k. It is so frustrating that I'm looking at switching to Davinci Resolve. Any advice?

I agree with Brian Collins and I mentioned this in the original, now missing thread, where if you keep AE active in the background (running a play loop in RAM does it) then Pr responds more freely.

Where has the original thread gone or is this a policy by the mods to deplete any growing rumblings of discontent under one subject in the hope that it goes away?

Last I heard 'Wes' was working on the fix, could replicate the issue on a MAC but then the thread, with at least 70 posts got zapped!?

I just had to run a work around to save back from CC 2019 to 2018, the difference in the preview time is so remarkable. I could have saved hours editing had I done this in CC 2018 from the start..

I had slow rendering on both premiere 2019 13.0 and media encoder. So I've gone back to the 2018 version! Come on guys! Stop using your clients as lab rats - get your software beta tested properly in the real world. And jut for your info I'm on a 2017 iMac 5K Retina Intel i5 Core 3.5Ghz Radeon Pro 575 4096 MB with 40Gb of Ram!

Brian - Indeed. Using Premiere while rendering speeds AME. Stupid but hey - computers where exact machines only before the discovery of Quantum Physics. 😉

The "fix" seems to be bouncing in and out of premiere while rendering. I'll have premiere renders at a crawl, bounce over to AE premiere speeds up significantly. It sounds stupid but it seems to work.

I am finding Preimere pro CC2019 so glitchy and slow, hanging up all the time.
it's impossible to edit with it... how can I go back a version?
This is ******* ridiculous!
