Throttle-n-Purge


Version: 1.5 Sign up to be notified by email when a new version of this script is posted
A dockable UI for quickly accessing preferences to speed up After Effects. Change project bit-depth, multiprocessing, and idle rendering as well as quickly purging the image caches.
Starting with After Effects CS4, there is a new multi-processing throttle system that manages how many CPU’s are to be left free for other applications. This script also adds access to a little known hidden preference that allows you to set the quality of the Toggle Pixel Aspect Correction button in the Comp View. (Please note that After Effects needs to be restarted after changing the PAR quality)
The package includes both Throttle and Throttle-n-Purge.

ALT-clicking on the 8-bit number at the bottom of the project window does the same
yes, but it takes 2 option clicks to get from 8 to 32. The script is all about streamlining your workflow
