I am running X (8.6 is on another computer). Both programs were executed 
under the most similar conditions, one after the other. Same settings, 
same file.
I know it isn't a definitve benchmark, it was just a quick test!

As for benchmarks, I ried to compile pov from the spources (from 3.1) 
under apple cc, I made several compiles using every possible combination 
of optimizations, the result was that megapov still was an edge faster (
on skyvase). This is somehow strange, since pov from command line should 
be advantaged.


I will render skyvase as soon as I have time.
