Can you audit a render?

[charlesbevan]

Is there any way to generate some sort of render audit?  I'd love to figure out which plugins or files in a render are slowing things down. Perhaps a log of timestamps or durations for each plugin as it's being used to render each frame?

GHz-hours, memory used, threads used, disk activity, anything else would all be bonus.

AE generates a Render Log.  I'm pretty sure you specify certain pieces of information beyond the basics.

Set your render logging to "extra per frame information" or whatever it is actually called in the render queue.

The option "Plus Per Frame Info" gives the most info but the log only shows total render time per frame (rounded to the second); I'm looking for more in-depth logging of each effect/layer, but this is handy to have regardless!
