I would suggest waiting for quantum computers to become more readily available
(I'm assuming that they already exist but not in the public domain yet).
It would be an interesting exercise to start coding a raytracer for a quantum
computer - I know that algorithms already exist for factoring large numbers which
is likely to be used for cracking so called unbreakable encryption.
