FCP and Compressor Export Taking WAY too long...

Hi there,

I have a 40minute video which I need to export. I added sharpness and adjusting in 3way coloro corrector along with some audio filters as well. I rendered it in FCP 7 and when I was done I sent it to Compressor and tried exporting the video 1280x720 video, auto bit rate, h.264 quicktime.

It says now that it needs 66hours to finish exporting...... I've done it this way many times before but I'm assuming because of the filters and adjustments made on the video this time, its causing it to take so long. I was wondering if there was the a better way to approach this. Thank you.

Oh yea and my specs are

Model Name: MacBook Pro
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.8 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 6 MB
Memory: 8 GB
Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz

 

All filter were done in final cut. Nothing in Compressor. I rendered it FCP before export.

I did not make it self contained. I just went to file>send to> compressor. I'm messing with the data bit rate to lower the speed will look into it more.
