The rendering pipeline has been a bit too narrow for some of the projects you’re pushing through it. The new public beta of the program introduces a feature called Multi-Frame Rendering. This takes advantage of the multiple graphic cores in the new Mac Pros to do more work in less time. The addition also lets the program automatically catch up on rendering tasks while the system is idle with a feature called Speculative Rendering. Another handy addition is that After Effects will notify you via your Apple Watch when a render has completed.
