Hi Chris,

As Brian mentioned, Ivory is intensive on CPU processing. The plug-in is 
streaming potentially many dozens of large audio files at any given second not 
to mention any further internal processing like resonance, ambience, etc. 
Unlike algorithms that process very efficiently, real-time streaming of 
multiple audio threads is a CPU challenge. It's a bit of a trade-off in terms 
of speed but offline bouncing is still generally faster depending on the 
complexity of the rest of the session. I don't find it to be particularly slow. 
I use an external Thunderbolt drive chassis with an SSD dedicated to Ivory. 
While I do notice that bouncing an instrument track with Ivory does take longer 
than pure audio tracks, it's only noticeably longer but surely not practically 
as long as a real-time bounce. Again, the track commit feature is a good 
approach for quicker bounces once the instrument part has been finalized. Even 
if it's not absolutely complete, one can always reactivate the instrument 
track, make changes and recommit.

HTH,

Slau
