Thank you. It rendered in 14m 32s on my XP2400 PC.

I havent started working on spline following isosurfaces (yet),
but Ryoichi Suzuki once made a macro for making isosurface ropes
that follows splines:

See the attachment of the above message for his "rope.inc" file.
This file must be edited a bit to make it work with POV-Ray v3.6.
I.e. some too long uncommented lines must be restored and the hat
