Due to its inner workings, SSLT /per se/ is prone to high-frequency
noise, that may sometimes exhibit a pattern. However, what I see in the
image appears block-ish (on the wide red wall) or blotch-ish (left sides
of the pieces making up the "DFC." writing), which strongly points
towards radiosity as the culprit.

Using more pretrace steps will probably help. Also, make sure to use
"always_sample off" (the default as of v3.7).


As for SSLT, at the size you're rendering, I doubt that subsurface
scattering will make much of a difference. Most LEGO bricks are not very
translucent. The lighting situation (comparatively strong diffuse
illumination from all sides, very few shadows visible) is also a
situation where SSLT would have little prominent effect.
