Magic Bullet Really Slow even after render!

hey-
i was wondering if anyone else had this problem..i recently used magic bullet on a 5 minute music video and it was incredibly slow to render (i have a dual 1.8 G5)..i can understand that is has to crunch alot of numbers, but my main problem is after the fact. even though it was rendered, i had very poor performance in FCP, it was all very slow. exporting using compressor or quicktime was very slow (almost 3 hours for a 5 minute video), where as if it didnt have magic bullet it only takes a minute. Why the hell would everything be so slow AFTER the effect has been rendered? any help would be greatly appreciated!
 
I cant help you particularly, but i am having the same problem, with the Newest universal version for 5.1.X on both my Intel Macs. 24" iMac with 7600gt 256mb Video card, and Macbook Pro 15" with X1600 256mb Video card. Very disapointed in the software for that reason, and also that it really didnt do much that i can already do with color correcting software built into FCP, atleast not too much more that i want to do.
