Your timeline is "red", which means it renders solely by CPU. To make render/export faster, follow these rules:
1) Ideally don't use CPU-effects at all (keep a timeline "yellow" = maximum speed mode)
2) If you can't avoid using CPU-effects - don't mix up CPU- and GPU- effects in the same adjustment layer. Doing so will switch rendering into "software only" mode (=very slow). Instead separate GPU and CPU effects in two different layers. Put "GPU-layer" on top of a "CPU-layer". This way GPU-acceleration will actually work
3) In case of applying effects directly to a clip without adjustment layers: organize effects in a way that all GPU-effects are applied after CPU-effects
4) If by all means you have to use some CPU-only effect on top of accelerated ones - then split the job on 2 parts: first you export the timeline with accelerated effects, then re-import and add that necessary CPU-effect(s). This way it'll be much faster than CPU-only render in one pass. (or use render-&-replace instead of export-import)
5) One more thing to remember. PPro often consider 3rd party effects as non-accelerated even if they use GPU for rendering (Twixtor, RGMB suite, etc ). Use this as main criteria of non-accelerated effect - its addition turns render bar from yellow to red.
