FCPX 10.0.5 - Audio Waveforms Drawing in Slowly or Not At All

In the 10.0.4 update I noticed that the audio waveforms did not draw in as quickly as they had previously. Since installing the 10.0.5 update it's even worse. I have one clip in a current project that only has a waveform for the first 30 seconds of the clip, even though the whole clip has audio. In the audio inspector I can see the whole waveform preview, but in the timeline I don't.

Is this an isolated problem, or are other people having similar issues?

I find turning off "show reference waveforms" can speed things up a little. But yes, it's frustrating how FCPX constantly has to rewrite the waveforms. It's quite similar to FCP7.

Also, hiding waveforms in the event library can help the timeline redraw quicker.

Premiere seems to have this one in the bag. Waveforms seem to be persistant through the timeline when scrolling. But I haven't used it enough to verify if it works with zooming in and out when playing (which X does not, unfortunately).

I'm having the same issue also. Both with waveforms and with filmstrips. For now I'm just telling my staff to restart FCP X. That seems to resolve it for a while at least.

Be sure to repot it in FCP X feedback. I reported some redrawing bugs this past spring and I was pleasantly surprised to see them resolved in 10.0.5. They really do read and log all those items.
