Not really. At the horribly-slow speed this is going, I saw POV-Ray only 
using like 300MB of RAM, which means that's how much of the photon map 
it generated. I have had my own scenes generate 1GB of photons in a few 
minutes :) Let me check exactly how much RAM it's using now.

What?

8MB? And no CPU time?

IT FINISHED??
