Hi,

I'm currently working on a scene with a glass filled with water, so may 
reflections/refractions are involved, max_trace level is 100.

A test render in 320x240 took ~15 Minutes with the intel compile for the 
first 30 lines. That seemd a little too slow, so I tried with the VC6 
compile... It took 20 seconds for the same!
I first thought it was a mistake, +c in the command-line or something, 
but it wasn't.

I havn't yet a minimalistic scene to demonstrate the issue, but will nake 
one if necessary as soon as i find the time for it.

my system is: Athlon 500 Mhz, 256 MB RAM, Win98SE, Pov 3.5 beta 7 (of 
course)

I tried, but the problem just disappeared, I can't reproduce it myself... 
Perhaps it was some prob. with windows itself, not Pov.
