    In this installment, i'll present the results of a series of benchmark tests with the two systems. To test Windows performance, the DV test is the longest (about 4 minutes) and most comprehensive. The other tests were all 1 minute long and included multiple tracks, with spinning, 1 / 4-screen picture-in-picture effects, color correction.

    v< < In the last installment, I described buying considerations and costs for system RAM and CPUs for Apples Mac Pro and HPs xw8600 workstation. In this installment, Ill present the results of a series of benchmark tests with the two systems. As you probably recall, both systems use quad-core Intel Xeon processors, and both used 64-bit operating systemsOS X 10.5.5 for the Mac and 64-bit Windows Vista Business, Service Pack 1, on the HP workstation. The benchmark tests differ by format and computer. To test Windows performance, the DV test is the longest (about 4 minutes) and most comprehensive, and it includes color correction, chroma key via Adobe After Effects using Dynamic Link, chroma key via Adobes native Color Key filter, transparency, titles, logo insertion, and other effects. To test performance under the various test configurations, I rendered this file to DVD-compatible MPEG-2 in Adobe Media Encoder. The other tests were all 1 minute long and included multiple tracks, with spinning, 1/4-screen picture-in-picture effects, color correction, and chroma key via After Effects using Dynamic Link. With all HD formats, I rendered to Blu-ray-compatible MPEG-2 format in Adobe Media Encoder. I describe how these tests differed from the tests I performed on the Mac below, but the numbers are not comparable.

Even at the 1 minute duration, the 4K Red source files still took at least 18 minutes to renderand it doesnt take long to eat into nights, weekends, and quality time with the kiddies. In all instances, I kept Premiere Pro open while encoding, though I wasnt actively editing. After running all the timed benchmark tests, I re-ran the DVCPRO HD-to-Blu-ray project again and tried some minor edits, including rendering a portion of the timeline, to gauge system responsiveness during the encoding cycle. I report the results of those tests below.
