Write-ON effect INSANE lag

I just don't get it - what is going on with Premiere Pro?

A general Write-on effect put on transparent video\any footage\black video or a still image (!!!) makes the part of the timeline red and lags SO much that you cannot change the effect's properties and see the result at a time thus making it impossible to use! What-the-hell????

And before you ask it's a 1920x1080 sequence on an SSD (7500\7000) on a core-i7 13700 paired with RTX 4080 and 64 gigs of 5600 MHz ram!

What is happening, Adobe? I don't wanna do such a simple thing in Ae.

    Write-on is non GPU accelerated and very much obsolete.

    After Effect is the way to go.

      Red line means it's not GPU-accelerated. I'm guessing you're also using H264 or H265 footage?

      Hi. I'm using a blank video. The rest is switched off. I also started a new
      sequence with an empty timeline with only a blank video or a still image -
      the result is the same. No matter whether it's GPU accelerated or not it
      should work on a 13700 even if it was used on a h264\265. Just think - the
      last gen processor cannot cope with a video footage with a single effect on
      it? So what's the point in upgrading at all?
