I looked. I remember that gallery. 18 hours on one of the archetecture. 
Essentially set it, then come back the next day, and you might have a 
nice image. :)


I dunno, These types of renderers do have some interesting applications, 
I could see an architect using them to do a true physical light 
simulation on a building design, using various lighting schemes/time of 
day, etc.. But for creating "photorealistic" rendered images, my bets 
are still on raytracers, they're not a physically accurate simulation, 
but they do a decent approximation.
