Load test, 10 October 2026
How fast your exports are
We put FrameJet under load with six accounts at once. Each account ordered a one-minute video in all eight formats, some of them in 4K. Every export finished — the last one after 12 minutes.
How long an export takes
For a video that is one minute long, measured in the test with six exports at the same time. Longer videos take longer accordingly.
| Quality | one format | whole export in the test |
|---|---|---|
| 720p | under 1 minute | about 5 minutes |
| 1080p | about 1.5 minutes | about 11 minutes |
| 4K | about 2.5 minutes | about 6–12 minutes, depending on plan |
When many people export at once
When many people export at once, FrameJet brings in extra servers on its own, especially large ones for 4K. In the test they were ready in just under two minutes. When things quiet down, they switch off again.
Depending on your plan, up to four formats of one export are processed at the same time; the plan overview shows how many. The extra computing power makes sure everyone gets their turn quickly.
Long videos and 4K
In a second test (31 October 2026) we exported videos up to two hours long, including 4K, while short clips and mid-length videos were running at the same time. All 40 exports finished, and every file, including the ones of 32 GB, played back completely.
| Video | Time for one export (one format) | File size |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p, 60 minutes | about 30 minutes | 3.7 GB |
| 1080p, 75 minutes | about 25 to 30 minutes | 4.6 GB |
| 4K, 20 minutes | 15 to 25 minutes | 5.3 GB |
| 4K, 60 minutes | 50 to 70 minutes | 15.8 GB |
| 4K, 120 minutes | about 2 hours 20 minutes | 31.7 GB |
On top of that, FrameJet analyses the video when you upload it: about 12 to 21 minutes for 60 minutes of video, and about 25 minutes for two hours of 4K. You can already work in the editor in the meantime.
Extra capacity was ready again after about two minutes, while the analysis was still running and before an export had been ordered. Short clips did not have to wait for the long videos.
The times come from a test with sample videos and several exports at once. With a lot of motion in the picture and under heavy load, it takes longer. Further formats of one export are rendered one after another or, depending on your plan, at the same time.
Good to know
These times come from a single test with sample videos. Footage with a lot of movement takes a little longer. You can always see how far along your export is in FrameJet.
