It's only CPU-intensive if you don't have a good discrete video card and/or at least 16 GB RAM. I got a very good GPU (decidedly midrange) a couple years ago, and from then on, Resolve runs fast and smooth.

Using the program I mentioned earlier (XMedia Recode), I can mux a 50GB video with 1-2GB audio file in less than ten minutes. This is using a PC I built in 2015, which at the time had some smoking hot specs.
The only catch to the fast muxing jobs is that I keep all the original files on the same drive to which I save the file. And this is kind of a special drive (at least to me). I don't even know what computer guys call it, but it's basically a step above an SSD. Here is the drive (I purchased it on Amazon):

Just a quick edit to add: it probably seems like I gloss over a lot of things (settings) in the tutorial video I made for XMedia Recode. But that's the beauty of XMedia Recode - if you choose to "copy" video and audio tracks when doing the muxing, it will mux the files with no re-encoding.

I'm running it on an imac with 8gb RAM, so that's probably the issue.

Rich I'd give you one of my Magix Vegas licenses, all you need to do is ask, I've offered before but you've never taken me up on it.
