yes, you could learn to use radiosity and its parameters instead of using the
default settings.  Like:

global_settings { ambient_light .01
  radiosity {
    brightness 1.5
    count 80
    error_bound .6
    pretrace_start .02
    pretrace_end .008
  }
}

already gives a far better result, using just 80 samples...
