I am not sure if anyone else is having this problem. After getting through all the crashes, I was able to import clips and create a movie in Final Cut 10.2. Now I am trying to render the project and it is running unbelievably slow. It is a 6.3 G file and after 20 minutes only 5% has been rendered.
JUst to make sure: do you mean rendering or sharing? You know you don't need to render, don't you?
also what ard project setting and what format are you exporting to?
Hi Luis, thanks for asking. I was "sharing" as opposed to rendering. I had initially set to APR 422 then when that was running very slow I switched to H.264 hoping that would move things alone. The format was 1920 x 1080 in 29.7 fps. I woke up this morning and it did share. But it just took so long.
If you exported as a Pro Res master file, it should take much less than real time to complete the export. In other words, an hour long timeline should probably not take any longer than 20-40 minutes on that machine. (Hard to be precise because it depends on what and how much effects you used.) On the other hand an H,264 export will probably take considerably longer than real time. If you are exporting to an external drive, make sure it's at least a USB3 connection. Also check available free space on your start-up and media drive.

Rendering is going very very slow in 10.2
