22.6 render >10 times slower in Mac M1 than 22.5 - PLEASE CHECK!
22.6 render engine is not working properly on M1 Macs. After a couple of seconds rendering times rise by 10x to 100x times. AE sequence in Premiere are causing Premiere to export in hours or "GPU Error" crash. Please check. Just rolled back to 22.5 and that is working properly.

Hi Michele,
Thank you for reporting this issue, sorry to hear that this is happening in 22.6 on your system. Would you mind sharing the specs of your M1 Mac system?
For us to further investigate, it would be helpful if you could send us a project file that demonstrates the rendering slowdown. Please post a link to your files here, or if you prefer not to post publicly you can send it to aebugs@adobe.com.
If you send it to that address:
A) Do not send .zip files, they will be blocked; renaming to .thisisazipfile is OK.
B) Post a comment here when you have sent the email. We'll need to manually check that inbox.Thanks for reporting this issue and for any further information you can provide,
- John, After Effects Engineering Team
