I'm not sure but I think it took 2-3 days on my 100 MHz Pentium
(800x600 pixels). (I just left it on when I had to leave home for 3 days.)

The black areas are because of the relatively low max_trace_level number

First I thought that I should increase this number, but then I remembered that
some glass images I rendered earlier looked nicer with some dark areas.

So I didn't change it for this rendering.
I now think that it helps in making the glass stand out from the background.

But I have now also increased the max_trace_level number to 20 just
to see how it looks. (And in a couple of days I'll now.)
