I'm rather surprised.
The two comparison images look very much alike. You didn't state parse
time in the first... do you mean that the 2nd image "renders" in much
less time but parses a long while?
You seem to have very good caustics on that non-photon mapped image too.
I like the image itself; those mirrors, if moved closer, or another
camera angle to see into them better would be great. Love the floor too.
