In the Windows version, just move the cursor on the slider bar and you'll
see the pixels crawling.
It's quite helpful to see the "difficult" areas but it can become pretty
addictive with slow renders, so I often turn off the display just to avoid
the temptation... It's sort of stupid to shout "go, go, go, you can do it"
to a slow pixel and then "ha, good boy, you made it" once it's rendered.
