[Avid-L2] H.264 Avid Export with frame rate conversion takes forever?

 

Exporting a 23.976 timeline DNX 175X SNDX 5.5.4 OS 10.6.8.  I set the export to limit bandwidth to 800Kb/sec.  size is 960x540 and I set the frames per second to 29.97 so as to convert the 23.976 frame timeline to a 29.97 fps QT.  At first Avid estimated 36 hours.  Then I did a video mixdown and it was saying 16 hours.  I've resorted to exporting a QT Ref and having QT Pro convert the ref .mov to a 29.97 H.264.  This seems to be moving faster judging by the progress bar.  The progress bar is an eighth of the way along after 10 minutes or so.  Of course I don't know if that's accurate.  It does seem like doing the export from Avid with the frame rate conversion is ridiculously long.  Am I missing something or some Avid trick to speed up it's H264 export.  I rarely use avid to do anything but a QT ref export so I'm a bit surprised.
