Not enough info. ...
How long is the sequence? What's the source? The fact that they're interviews doesn't really matter.
Most people would do a same as source export and then use something else to compress.
I love using the Elgato Turbo264 device (USB thumbdrive looking thing) for H264 conversions. Does them about 8 times faster than anything else. Compressing 264 inside of Avid is about your worst choice for speed and quality. Use Compressor if you have it or Squeeze, which comes with many Avid products or go with a MPEG Streamclip or something.
The rendering could be the problem as well if you're leaving it as a real-time non-rendered effect.
Depending on the accuracy you need, I'll just tell people to give me notes based on the QT player's built in running time. It's not as elegant, but if it saves you ten hours...
