 From what I know of RED workflow, you work on smaller proxy files, and 
then with the final rendering, the hi-res versions are used. This makes 
editing *much* faster, as we've just learned...

Here's some related info on FCP and proxy editing:

 YOU CAN edit MP4 files directly on ordinary hardware!
   
 I can film my blog in HD 1280x720 30fps MP4 on my Xacti HD1010 and
 copy the MP4 files directly to my drive and drop straight into the
 timeline in VS Pro X2 and trim and edit without any conversion or
 other messing around. Then just hit the output option which renders
 MPEG2 really quickly, and then I convert to MP4 using whatever
 standalone program.
 

 congrats on finding that solution. I wonder if this trick extends to
 other editing programs. Ive never seen smart proxy on FCP.

This is the way we used to work on AVID.   Then we had a blissful 10  
year interim period with FCP SD editing where you got to cut the  
actual clips at original resolution, even if you were doing an online  
afterwards.   Guess it'll take a while again before the processing  
power catches up with the raw hi-res video files generated by top-end  
cameras.  Then just as we all start cutting those files at original  
resolution in real time, everything will switch to 3D IMAX :)
