I'm using a 27" iMac 3.4Ghz i7 core with 12GB and iMovie '11 / Lion ... It takes just minutes now, thanks be.

Using QuickTime, did you export as .avi, mpeg-4, QuickTime movie (.mov)?

What size did you originally try to export as (480x360, 640x480, 720x540, 720p, 1080p)?

What's going on in Activity Monitor? Any threads running that shouldn't be?
