I've been dual-booting between 10.1 and 10.2 for awhile now, but using 
10.1 for burning VCDs with.
My 10.1 system was held at QT5 and Toast 5.1.2
Today I finally updated Toast to v5.2.1, and burned a VCD with it on 
OSX 10.2 with QT6 installed.
It took 3+ hours for each 28 minute movie (a DV stream created by FCP) 
on a G4/733. plenty of disk space.
With previous versions it was slow, but not this slow! Hell, encoding a 
DVD is faster than this now!
Is this slowdown typical? Is it Toast? QT6?
