don't ask me, what I had in mind as I put this image together ....

but more then the image itself the render time did hurt (~2400h @P3;1GHz).
I had to raise the photons gather values to something insane like 300, 2000 to 
smooth out the photon map (~140MB).
Lower values gave just a bunch of sparkles ....

If anybody got good ideas to avoid these render times on scenes with a lot 
reflective/refractive objects I would be happy.
