A quick mosaic render or preview can give you an idea of how it will 
look and things like general illumination level and balance, it just 
can't find those pixels that take for ever to render unless it appens to 
sit in the middle of a given mosaic tile. It's like doing a render at a 
fraction of the intended resolution and blowing it up in a graphic 
application by a large factor without any resampling nor interpolation.
