I don't know exactly (multiple stops and starts with +c) but it's about the
eight hour mark for the 1600x1200 image with radiosity on a PII 450 with
128MB. Using Megapov speeds up the radiosity and media, (using a single
spotlight  with method 3 media results in very quick renders of the areas
not lit by the spotlight, i.e. the left and right hand edge of the image.)
