It will take 25 times as long to render (at most) as it's proportional to
the rendered area. If the 1280*960 version is already slow, just render the
close-ups with the +sr +er +sc +ec switches (you'll need a paint utility
such as the gimp to cut out the rendered part) or use the zoomin macro. See
http://www.povcomp.com/samples/ for an example.
