When you run After Effects with the MP Accelerator plug-in installed, After Effects takes advantage of the multiprocessing capabilities of your Macintosh system. You can force After Effects to use the main processor only by holding down the Command key when you choose a command, which also enables you to compare main processor performance to multiprocessor performance.

It also prevents system errors that occur in earlier versions, especially those caused by renders interrupted by user activity.
