Terrible performance
After Effects 2022 is the slowest version launched. Freezes a lot, the preview is unbearable even on light compositions (i7-6800k, Geforce 1070 8g, 64gb RAM, 2 SSDs (one for the software, one entirely for cache).

In an effort to improve communications between you and the After Effects team, we are moving this feedback forum to the After Effects page on the Adobe Support Community. As requested, bugs and feature requests will be able to live separately in that forum. If you have an item here that did not make the migration, please bring it over to our new home.
See you soon on the Adobe Support Forum!

hey, I have almost the same specs, and almost the same usage! yeah, AE only scales linearly with RAM, clock speeds, and core count now that multiframe exists. unfortunately, those cards with many cores have slower clock speeds and smaller transistor counts at times. I only have 32 gigs of RAM, so that means I can playback a little more than half of what you can.
GPU does next to nothing. if you do use it it will be blisteringly fast, but hitch and make the UI unusable whenever the preview and AI are both showing (almost always.)

I have a post with a number of others who have similar grievances. also commenting here to boost popularity because we're seeing the same thing with the same (almost) computer.
