The benchmark scene is in p.t.s-f. What crashes is any scene using
transformations:
sphere { <0,0,1>, 1 }
works, but
sphere { <0,0,0>, 1 translate <0,0,1> }
crashes.

I had other results. I rendered the added (see last post) scene with
800x600, AA=0.3, Radiosity=On and Antialias=On.
3D!Now compile: 3min, 30sec
povray 3.1g: 5min, 04sec

I tried it, but I had no problems. I can use translate with no problems.

The crash I get when I try to execute your binary on the standard skyvase.pov
is an invalid opcode. This might be an Athlon vs. K6-2 thing.

Could be, i also tried skyvase.pov and it crashes for the same reason. Of
course I don't know if transformations are the only reason in this case.

I couldn't run your scene either, so i can't confirm that. Have you tried
the code i posted to p.t.s-f.? (320x240 -aa -d)

The invalid opcode is because the programm uses an instruction that the K6
doesn't know but the Athlon knows. I tried to don't use Athlon instructions,
but I had to fail to notice one.

I think I know why the 3D!Now version is one minut slower. I changed some
things by the color converting ( float to unsigned char ), but this was now
not ready so it would be slower then the "normal" PovRay. I wanted to speed
up the display speed, but this was not done jet. I will remove this and test
again and post the results.

*g* I found the "mistake". I forgot to set the compiler thr optimization to
max speed ( I had disabled the optimization ). Now new speed check
3D!Now compile: 2min, 14sec
povray 3.1g: 2min, 42sec
