This one used 150MB peak and sysmon reported 500kB free ram at the
end of the render. Took 12 hours.

I'm trying it now at full res, without pretrace, saving rad data
and with normal on. If it starts to swap I assume I can just
stop and start a new partial trace. I changed nearest count from
6 to 12 to see if the noise smooths out.

  radiosity{
    save_file "sibenik3.rad"
    pretrace_start 1
    pretrace_end 1
    count 1200
    recursion_limit 3
    nearest_count 12
    error_bound 0.1
    normal on
  }
