![]() ![]() That speed differential also applied to exports – the Intel iMac was faster by 176%! NOTE: I purposefully did not render either project, as I wanted to see what the native playback speed would be. ![]() Yup, the older Intel-based iMac was about 4 times faster during playback than the newer M1 MacBook Pro!! Customized camera with Sweep behavior and depth of field enabled.Customized, animated spotlight shining on media clip.Animated and colorized gadget (upper right).In this test, the Intel iMac was 48% faster than the M1 MacBook Pro! (Though both exported the project slightly faster the second time through.) No external media was used for this project, just library elements. Though this project was designed to run at 60 fps neither system achieved that speed: The first project took a 3D object, applied rotation in 3D space, added custom lights and colors, plus a moving camera shooting with depth of field enabled. I exported and timed each project twice, just in case there was a significant speed difference due to cacheing. Based on data provided by Activity Monitor, I would not expect much difference if this computer used the M1 Max CPU instead.īoth projects were set to UHD (4K) 60 fps with 20 second duration. These are the specs for the 2021 16″ MacBook Pro: Apple Silicon, latest version of macOS. These are the specs for the 2017 iMac: Intel-based, latest version of macOS. In every test, the 2017 27″ iMac was significantly faster than a 2021 16″ MacBook Pro! I exported each project twice and timed the duration of each export. I created two 4K projects containing 3D shapes, 4K media, cameras, lights and filters. Except these results were NOT what I expected! Richard sent me a question last week asking me to compare the speed of complex projects in Apple Motion when running on Apple Silicon vs. ![]()
