Vegas Megui x264 Render Times Dramatically Slowed for Seemingly No Reason...

K, so I have been using a Vegas->frameserve->megui->x264 render workflow for delivery.

The first times I set it up it was great! I was getting 20fps and all 4 cores were at 100% in task manager.

I am pretty darn sure that I haven't changed anything but for some reason it is now going at 5-6fps and only 30-40% usage. It's very frustrating! I don't know what went wrong. Can someone help me? Anyone seen this before?

My specs are AMD 940 3.0ghz x4 phenom II / 4GB DDR800 speed RAM (2x2gb) / 7200RPM 500GB HD

Could it be because of I have an Auto Levels video effect on my footage? I'll run a test after this is done w/o the filter on and see...
 
ugh I guess it was the Auto Levels effect. I took it off and now I'm getting the fast speeds again. It's the Mike Crash Auto elvels effect btw.

I don't understand why that would make it so much slower. Is there a way to like prerender it by itself so I'm always using 100% cpu/going the fastest?
