Simple rendering takes so long now

With the latest Catalina and FCP 10.4.10 rendering takes so long ! :(  It used to be very fast ... but now for example rendering 5 min HD project with just one video and one audio track and no effects takes 4 minutes :(

What happened ?

It might help if you post an Etrecheck report.

I wonder if this has something to do with 10.15.7 or something else in your system that is causing trouble.

Do you have Chrome installed? If so, uninstall it completely and see if that helps. Recently Chrome has emerged as a serious problem to professional systems, since it hogs the video toolbox and causes severe issues.
