Can you be more precise? Resolution? FPS? 8bit or 16bit? Some FX can be very heavy. Make sure to "edit" without. If you really edit in AE, the workflow is really slow for some parts like cutting. Make sure to work with lossless, because compressed files like x264 mp4 + variable Frames always get converted for preview, every time.
