The higher your recursion level, the higher your count needs to be to
get smooth results.. but the more your scene is filled with bright
areas, the less this matters. In your case, you have an entire
hemisphere (the sky), so you probably won't need to change your quality
settings at all.

Increasing the recursion level will also brighten your image a bit; if
all of your textures are using the default diffuse setting, you can
lower that slightly, or make some other adjustment to your lighting
setup. (Or you could just reduce brightness a little.)

You might also raise gray_threshold a little so that the environment
doesn't contribute TOO much color to the scene.
