That's a curious thing because I found subsurface together with area lights and
radiosity to be faster in most recent UberPOV versus the 3.7.1.1-alpha.

Same scene file was able to get a fraction, about 15%, of the render done while
the "alpha" was still doing the radiosity pretrace. Around 5 minutes to complete
pretrace versus about 25 minutes.
