CloseThe AE Benchmark plugin and website has been discontinued due to the plugin not meeting both the communities' and our own standards. Due to a variety of unforeseen reasons, AEB was not a reliable and consistent benchmarking tool and thus we've decided to take it offline.
Fortunately the Adobe AE dev team have been working hard implementing the new multi-frame rendering pipeline so we can all look forward to AE utilizing more of our ever growing number of CPU cores/threads
AE Benchmark
the free benchmarking tool for After Effects
Dispell the Mystery
There's a lot of confusion (and disappointment) around After Effects performance, particularly on modern hardware. AE Benchmark uses real-world AE processing tasks to give you 3 scores:
- Singlethreaded
- Multithreaded
- GPU
So if you’re wondering why a $10,000 rig only renders certain .aep’s ~20% faster than a $2,000 rig, you’ve come to the right place. AEB is intended to help users choose which hardware gives the best AE performance for their budget.
