Those pov scenes use omnidirectional light sources so they really can't
be compared to the Cornell rendering. Here is a POV 3.5 pre-beta rendering
of the same scene geometry using a light source that matches the diffuse
patch used in the original. Render time 5 minutes on 1GHz system.

Here is a blurred reflection version of the same scene. 30 minutes.
