Use a two pass method.
First pass: set pretrace_end to a low value. It can help to use a low value for
low_error_factor to 
collect some extra data. You want to collect as much radiosity data as possible so you
will have 
less sampling to do during the final render. Save the radiosity values collected.
Second pass, parallel pass, you need to set always_sample to no. Load the previously
saved radiosity 
data. Set pretrace_start 1 pretrace_end 1.
