Hi,
I just recompiled PovRAy 3.6 using not default GCC 3.2 and -march=i686,
but gcc-4.0 and -march=k8 (but still in 32b mode).

Benchmark was a bit faster - about 34 minutes instead of 38 (Amd64 2800, 1
GB ram), but the renderer images differed a bit - it looked liked photos
where more blurred in gcc4/k8. Is gcc4 misscompiling povray?

I will repeat tests more precisely soon.
