GCC 3.3 may be Apple's latest version however GCC 3.4 compiles on OSX
out of the box.
Using that to compile povray I get my benchmark down even further.
Time For Parse: 0 hours 0 minutes 12.0 seconds (12 seconds)
Time For Photon: 0 hours 2 minutes 19.0 seconds (139 seconds)
Time For Trace: 1 hours 22 minutes 34.0 seconds (4954 seconds)
Total Time: 1 hours 25 minutes 5.0 seconds (5105 seconds)
I did try povray 3.6 Beta 4 using the G4 engine but it was
much slower, 1 hour 48 minutes, but I need to check all the
options are the same as I can't figure out how to get it to
use an ini file.
Does the Beta have debugging code in that might slow it down ?
Does it have optimization that would give the beta an advantage ?
