Yeah, it's good stuff, eh?

Right now I'm wondering... could I draw a chart that allows me to 
quickly read off how long an animation will take to render given how 
many frames there are and how long each frame takes?

[In principle it's a simple calculation. Except that most of us have no 
idea how long "5,000 seconds" actually is. Damned non-metric time 
systems! ;-) ]

I'm guessing that since this is a multiplication question, you'd need 
logarithmic scales...
