They are unfortunately using chess2.pov against our recommendations. If I 
could find the SPEC 2006 CD (which I did put somewhere, I am certain ;-) ) I 
could check what INI file they finally used, but that, too, was against our 
recommendations iirc. What we learnt was that lots of politics between large 
corporations dictate SPEC choices :-(

BTW, running a single program from the SPEC 2006 benchmark is not very 
representative. So what do you really want to do? There is a benchmark scene 
built into POV-Ray as you might know...
